Modern History

Are you fascinated by the events that have unfolded in the centuries since the French Revolution of 1789? Do you wonder why nations succeeded and failed, how societies dealt with the impact of empire, or how battles for social justice were won? On our BA Modern History degree, you’ll study the forces that have shaped our world.

You’ll be taught by a team of internationally-recognised historians and learn about developments around the globe – from the Soviet Union to modern Japan, from modules examining propaganda to landscape history, and beyond. You’ll learn how to develop and communicate your own ideas, and how to interpret historical sources.

Choice will be at the heart of your Modern History degree. Building on a firm grounding in your first year, in your second and third years you’ll choose from a wide range of optional modules. You’ll decide how to build your course, tailoring your studies to your interests.
