Teaching varies with the tutor but is overall pretty good. Lectures are usually captured (depending on the module), although attending in person is better. There is a wide range of modules, and the mandatory y1 modules are interesting. There are also numerous international placement opportunities, either 1 year placements abroad in y3 (so your degree would become 4 years) or 1 term in Venice in y3 (degree remains 3 years). 4 modules over the year, my only complaint would be that the workload seems to be higher than pretty much everyone doing Humanities at least with the amount of reading. Usually 2-3 hours per module per week + 4-5 pieces of assessed work per year. Job prospects seem to be good for a history module. Also quite forward-thinking in its study of history, which I'd argue is a good thing - for example the medical history module looks in depth at the effects of British colonial rule on local populations. read more

Don't think anything can be good enough to be paying £9k a year for it, but quality of teaching is good and all. 2 core and 2 optional module choices and I have an assignment for each one each term, which isn't as bad as people who have exams every week or so. I've met my personal tutor once and it was pretty quick, but they're more useful if you actually contact them with problems of course. Course content is really interesting. Job prospects are as good as any I guess? read more
