BA (Hons) History and Politics

History and Politics are a natural combination. Knowledge of the past helps us to understand the present. And current politics provides insights into history.

On this degree, you’ll study the progress of people, events, and government through time. And you could get to see modern politics functioning firsthand on a three-month internship at Westminster. This flexible course lets you tailor your studies to suit your own interests and career plans.

Inspired by the rich history of Hull and its particular contribution to national politics, this degree will enhance your understanding of the human experience over the long term. And it'll enable you to apply historical insights to the study of present-day politics and governance.
