There are clear reasons why History has been a leading academic discipline for thousands of years. Its content is endlessly fascinating for the inquisitive mind, varying from the political ideologies that transformed whole continents to famines that led to the brutal demise of millions of individual lives. More than that, it is the context that will give depth to your understanding of every political, social, cultural and economic dimension of the modern world. In an age in which vast quantities of information are readily available online, History will teach you how to research, synthesise, prioritise and evaluate complex evidence with finesse. In addition, you will learn how to make cogent arguments, articulate your thoughts clearly and compellingly express yourself.
