Description
We place particular emphasis on undergraduate research. At Bristol, students 'do' history as well as read history through a mix of core units and a wide choice of primary source-based optional units. You will undertake one substantial piece of independent research each year, culminating in a final-year dissertation.
In the first year you will study medieval, early modern and modern history, exploring key themes that you may not have encountered at A-level. After this, you will pursue your own pathway through the degree, choosing from a wide range of thematic and research-oriented units.
In recent years topics have included:
Science and the Supernatural
NGOs and Humanitarianism Since 1945
Drink and Disorder in Early Modern England
Sixties America and its Aftermath
You also have the opportunity to study abroad during your second year. Recent destinations have included Australia, Europe, and the United States.
