Freedom of choice

Our specialised modules allow students to develop a breadth of chronological and geographical knowledge – from Inventing Human Rights (1776-2001) and The Transatlantic Slave Trade (1500-1865) to The Origins and Rise of Islam (600-1250).

You’ll study diverse periods from ancient Rome to the 21st century, as well as specific regions in global, national and regional history. How about discovering more about Lancaster itself with our module ‘Witches’, Warriors and Slavers?

There is an extensive choice of modules throughout your degree, so that you can personalise your studies to suit your own interests and passions. For example, in your second year, you can apply to take part in our heritage placement module and gain invaluable work experience. Past students have worked with The National Trust, Greater Manchester Police Museum & Archives and the Duchy of Lancaster.

You’re more than a number

We are a closely knit department with a strong sense of community. You’ll get to know your lecturers and benefit from quality contact time each week.

Our academics are leaders in their fields and provide teaching of the highest quality – via lectures, seminars and small tutorial groups. Your academic tutor will provide individual academic support.
