Course Overview

All our degrees provide transferable skills in communication, presentation, critical analysis, and teamwork. This will be critical for your future career, whether in historical studies or one of the wide range of professions that attract our graduates. It doesn't matter if you have little or no previous experience with ancient history; we have designed our courses for maximum flexibility. This allows you to choose how you want to specialize or diversify as your knowledge and understanding develop.

Our dedicated work experience and outreach staff will organize placements for you in schools, heritage organizations, museums, archives, and on external projects – complementing the volunteering provision within the University.

You will undertake a placement/project in a school or heritage setting where you will work with your teacher/heritage mentor to gain a range of experience and to design and deliver a lesson plan or outreach activity. These modules provide an excellent foundation for a PGCE or a career in heritage management.
