Study with a top History department and be taught from the cutting edge of historical research. Learn to write for a broad audience and communicate ideas effectively with colleagues in Journalism.
This BA History and Journalism gives students the opportunity to study two subjects that will help them to hone their investigative and analytical skills, while developing their writing style.
Through a diverse and inclusive History curriculum students will learn about an array of cultures and identities. What links Hertfordshire's work is their focus on people’s history and everyday lives. This is represented strongly in the first year programme, which will give students an insight into the making of the modern world through exploration of faith, magic and medicine, campaigns for freedom and equality, Africa and the world, and America from Hamilton to Trump.
This ability to work as an effective and confident researcher, honed over the course of their studies, will benefit students in the final year of History if they choose to write a dissertation. This extended piece of work will grow out of a topic that interests them. Previous students have been inspired by their year of study abroad, while others have worked on the history of jiu jitsu, women code breakers at Bletchley Park, the Notting Hill riots, and vice and sexuality in 17th-century London. One of the final year students won the British Commission for Maritime History Prize in 2016 for his dissertation on the East India Company.
