Overview
Our joint honours course allows students to pursue their own areas of interest within Anthropology and History whilst also providing them with a solid foundation in both disciplines and a range of personal and professional skills which will serve as a springboard for their future career development. The programme is carefully designed to enable students to gradually develop their knowledge and skills and become autonomous, effective and independent learners.
When you study Anthropology, you’ll explore what makes us human, what drives our diversity and how we’re connected to our environment. History is about far more than studying the past. It enables you to discover why people act the way they do and to explore how societies develop.
Links between research and undergraduate teaching are an important and distinctive feature of the programme, and the combined research experience and competencies of staff have shaped its design, content and delivery.
Learning and assessment
In your first year, you’ll explore what it means to be human. You’ll learn about gender in different societies and you’ll learn about ancient human communities and our endangered primate cousins. You’ll develop the core skills needed for History while studying an exciting range of material, from the beginnings of Europe’s colonisation of the rest of the world to more recent discussions of race and the environment.
In your second year, you’ll be able to focus on areas such as human origins and archaeology, international development, environment and conservation. You’ll examine global challenges like environmental hazards and disasters. You’ll explore more specialist historical issues, like what the Jack the Ripper case tells us about Victorian society, or how thinkers like Charles Darwin have influenced our culture.
In your final year you’ll be free to focus on what you care about most, including your dissertation topic. You might examine the illegal wildlife trade, or investigate habitat loss. You might explore life in Renaissance Italy, or the fall of the Russian monarchy.
