Historical narratives offer us stories of humility, courage, wisdom and - most importantly - hope. In essence, history teachers us to move forward, recognise our mistakes and learn from them to create a better existence for all. History aims to further your understanding and knowledge of the past and increase your ability to present that understanding and knowledge with clarity, insight and discrimination. Students will develop their critical reasoning and analytical skills, including the capacity for problem-solving and thinking creatively. They will develop intellectual independence, including the ability to conduct detailed research.
