You will really enjoy this subject if you have a keen interest in the past and want to come to a better understanding of the present. If you enjoy reading, thinking, researching and gathering evidence then consider History. Still unsure, then ask yourself: Do I like working independently and in small groups, debating and presenting? Organise and manage my time effectively? Communicate and write clearly? Want to challenge myself academically?

This course will enable you to develop a wide range of transferable skills such as in-depth research and historical investigation, critical analysis of historical interpretations, cross referencing of evidence, and comparison of sources, essay writing, note taking and summarising, and debating.

This is an academic qualification and can be a demanding course so you must be willing to read around the subject and write extended answers!
