The study of History helps students to understand how individuals, communities and societies have lived in the past and how those past experiences have helped to shape the present world. Liverpool Hope University’s History degree gives students the opportunity to study a wide-range of historical periods from the Early Modern period to more recent contemporary historical events.
History at Liverpool Hope University is part of the supportive and friendly environment within the subject areas of History, Politics and International Relations. Students will benefit from being taught by a team of recognized scholars, who have published widely in their fields and who are dedicated and experienced teachers.
Throughout the degree, students will be able to take advantage of the rich library, archival, museum and heritage resources available in Liverpool and further afield. Working with the resources of the many Liverpool museums forms an important part of their learning experiences. The History team run a range of fieldwork activities every year in the local area and beyond, and offers the opportunity for study visits to major European cities on an annual basis.
Students will study Law with Liverpool Hope University and they will gain an understanding of the fundamental principles, theories and key ideas that underpin the law in England and Wales. They also learn about the way Public Law provides the legal framework within which government and administration functions, the structure of Law and Government under which people live, and the values of democracy, rule of law and constitutionalism that underpin that structure.
