A degree as demanding and broad as Classical Civilisation and History equips you with a wide range of transferable skills that are highly valuable to employers.
You’ll have advanced communication skills, which allow you to present and defend your ideas confidently and clearly. You’ll also have strong independent research skills and be able to think critically about the information you find. You’ll also have teamwork skills, and the organisational skills needed to handle two different subjects.
This means our graduates are in a great position to succeed in diverse careers. They’ve gone into publishing, law, journalism, education, advertising and marketing, business and finance, the charity sector, and the civil service. Many have also continued to postgraduate study.
