Programme structure
Core modules:
Approaches to the Past (Introductory Module)
Research Methods and Skills
Independent Study Presentation
Each semester the programme will offer a number of Special Studies modules (normally between 3 and 5) covering different historical periods. This means that a particular special study you’re keen to take may not run. The minimum number of students on a module is normally 4, and when this threshold is not reached the special study module may be withdrawn from the selection. The Special Studies will be chosen from the list of modules currently validated:
Special Studies modules include:
The History of Anglo-Saxon Wessex
Medieval Government
Female Rule in the Pre-modern Mediterranean
Gender and History 1500-Present
Medicine and Society in Southern England 1550-1700
