What the college says

History is about people – how they lived, decisions they made, their beliefs and values. By studying what has happened in the past we gain a perspective on the present and a deeper understanding of current conflicts, governments and power struggles. It is as varied and fascinating as human nature itself. The skills it helps to foster include those of comprehension and analysis. Historians are clear thinkers who can judge the relevant, write concisely and present informed arguments. Such skills are valuable in many jobs but are particularly pertinent to law, journalism, the media and the Civil Service
