We teach and research over 5,000 years of history across every continent. Whether you are interested in medieval or modern China, the ancient or the modern Near East, north or south America, Africa, or Europe and Britain, our department hosts some of the most exciting and diverse courses around. We cover every approach to history including political, social, public, cultural, religious, gender, intellectual, art, administrative, legal, imperial, economic and international. Our teaching groups are small and personalised so that you have the best university experience in one of the world's greatest cities and history departments.
