Course summary

Explore the past and prepare for your future with modules covering a thousand years of local, national and international history. With themes ranging from identity, race and ethnicity to politics and justice, from leisure and the landscape to war, conflict and social change, encompassing a wide variety of embedded skills. There has never been a more important time to study History and to think critically about the past. The past is contested, controversial and very much alive. Set within the historic environment of Chester, our exciting course offers not only an exploration of the past but also a gateway to your future. From Medieval to Modern, from local to global, we embrace a range of approaches including social, cultural and political history but also the study of material culture, digital humanities and the application of history in a practical context to help develop your employability prospects. Our inclusive curriculum means that you will challenge existing narratives about the past, and be encouraged to think critically about how and why these narratives have developed. You will also explore important themes and issues relating to race, diversity, gender, imperialism, conflict and climate change. Through the study of the past, we can make sense of our present and start to think about how to work together to shape our future. Join our passionate team to start shaping your future.
