Overview
Throughout the The Psychology and History (Hons) programme from Liverpool Hope University you will encounter important themes such as nationalism and imperialism; colonisation and decolonisation; gender and identity. Our course will encourage you to engage with, and challenge, existing views of the past: history is always controversial and contested.
Liverpool’s long-standing connections with Ireland and many other places across the globe, and its diverse traditions and cultures, make it a fascinating place to study history. Historic sites in the University’s local area, Childwall – which is mentioned in Domesday Book – form part of our programme of study visits, which also includes the city’s impressive Museum of Liverpool, International Slavery Museum and the World Museum, and sites further afield, such as the Elizabethan wonder that is Hardwick Hall.
History at Liverpool Hope is part of the supportive and friendly environment within the subject areas of History, Politics and International Relations. You will benefit from being taught by a team of recognised scholars, who have published widely in their fields and who are dedicated and experienced teachers. You will work with a wide variety of historical evidence throughout the whole of your degree programme, including rare books housed in our Special Collections.
Our course offers the option of a placement year so that you can practise your research and communications skills in a professional setting. Our close links with National Museums Liverpool also enable us to offer final-year dissertation topics linked to museum research projects, providing valuable experience of handling artefacts. Whatever you choose to work on for your dissertation, it will showcase the important skills that you have developed during your degree course that are much in demand with a wide range of employers.
Career opportunities:
Past History graduates have gone on to have careers in the BBC, National Trust, National Monuments Commission, the Civil Service, national and local newspapers, banking and accountancy firms, and museums and galleries. Other graduates take the important transferable skills that are developed through studying History – the ability to read and analyse a wide range of evidence, and construct a clear and convincing argument – and build careers in different sectors such as commercial businesses and retail.
A number of graduates have also chosen to continue their studies by completing a postgraduate degree. At Liverpool Hope, we offer a number of MA degrees, including History, and Politics and International Relations.
