Overview

Applied Humanities (Accelerated degree) is taught at a number of UK universities, and the entry terms are set department by department rather than nationally. It is a three year undergraduate degree, with the specialism widening as you move through the years.

Teaching in History is reading led, with methods training in the middle years and a dissertation at the end.

The lowest English requirement we hold on this course is IELTS 6.0, and departments asking more than that usually expect a stronger academic record too. Tuition is £12,500 a year.

Applications open around a year ahead of the intake. Getting the documents together early is what keeps the September date realistic.
