This undergraduate degree is designed for intellectually curious students eager to understand the forces that have shaped societies, focusing on social, cultural, and political history from the early modern to the modern day, with particular attention to the British Isles, Europe, the Americas, and India. You will develop a nuanced understanding of historical debates and how they have evolved, exploring diverse historical evidence, including written materials, maps, visual images, film, art, and music, to reconstruct and interpret the past.
This full-time, four-year on-campus programme at the University of Dundee immerses you in the practice of history from the outset.
