BA (Hons) Politics and History

Course Overview

During a period of profound and unprecedented political upheaval, a degree in politics and history will equip you with the skills necessary to lead and succeed in a changing world. Combining your politics degree with the study of history is a smart choice. Everyday politics at the local, national, and international levels provides the material out of which history comes to be understood. As well as exploring British and international political structures, our course offers a distinct focus on €˜political action across party politics, campaigns, and community politics, all within the context of history. Throughout the course, we maintain a critical focus on how political ideas and policies have translated into €˜real, felt political action and outcomes €˜on the ground. This includes relating theory to issues of historical and contemporary social justice and social policy.
