BA (Hons) History

History is best understood when different periods, people, and experiences are related, thus giving us a deeper understanding of our present. This program takes a broadly thematic approach to learn about history, in which students forge links in space and time, gaining a greater insight into their world and experience. Modules are designed to provide thematic coherence and threaded together to build on learning through engagement with primary and secondary sources in a critical and academic way.

The program takes a broad and progressive approach to learn history in which students can help shape the curriculum content, selecting areas of interest that can be explored collaboratively and then built on over time to develop specialist skills and knowledge. While guided by tutors' expertise, who can ensure focus on learning outcomes, students are proactive in co-constructing their learning. So, if you have an interest in the Cold War, for instance, that will link to our Rebellion, Revolution, and Conflict module. Are you interested in the Space Race? Great - let's build on this knowledge in our Innovation, Science, and Technology module. Do you want to know more about the history of Ming China? No problem - this fits into our Ancient to Contemporary module.
