BA (Hons) History

Course Overview

History at Newman covers content from the ancient, medieval, early modern, and modern periods, with a global perspective. You can explore topics from gender and sexuality in the ancient world to modern totalitarian regimes. Our modules take a case study approach, encouraging you to make social, political, and cultural comparisons over time.
