I have very mixed feelings about my time studying history at Lancaster. My first year (in lockdown) was very difficult - the main module involves learning a new period / topic every week, which was very hard to keep up with or develop any real interest in the period being studied. In addition, my class tutor in my first year was unhelpful and dismissive of any issues I had with the course, often dismissing my worries rather than providing meaningful advice. However, the course became much better in my second and third years, where I have had the chance to choose specific modules to study and learn from the very knowledgeable professors at Lancaster. My dissertation supervisor is wonderful and a great help to my studies. read more

The department are much friendlier than LEC and provide lots of support. They speak with students and act upon feedback. There are different modules to choose from so you can tailor your degree to your interests... but there sometimes the module information is a bit misleading as to what the course is actually like. I wish there were more contact hours, too. read more

Teaching quality is excellent and course content is generally good, although with staffing changes and core modules there are some pointless and dull topics. Teaching time on many courses is low but lecturers are willing to accommodate more sessions. Biggest issue was needing to take non BA specific modules in first year to meet the full credits as there are not a full year's worth of 1st year modules on offer read more
