About 2-Term Pathway - Foundation Certificate in Humanities - Continue to Bachelor of Arts (Honours) - History
Program Description
For students who've finished high school but don’t meet the entry requirements for university, a Foundation Certificate can help them gain entry to an undergraduate degree. After completing this pathway option students qualify for progression to the 1st year of an undergraduate degree at the University of Essex.
A student’s course length is determined mainly by their English language level (UKVI IELTS score). Students on all course lengths take a set of common or similar modules to gain a solid base of skills for university. Students taking a course longer than 2 terms, will take additional modules designed to improve one or more of their English language level, academic skills, and basic knowledge of particular subjects.
Bachelor of Arts (Honours) - History
The BA History allows students to explore challenging questions about the impact of political, social and cultural change on individuals, social groups and regions. From African-American slavery to Stalin’s Russia—from households in Essex to witchcraft in Germany—from the history of disease to revolutions in China, the Department urges students to explore the past in order to better understand the present.
Students have the flexibility to choose from a wide range of optional modules about subjects close to home and further afield, including:
- The American Revolution
- Mass immigration to Britain throughout history
- The role of women in Early Modern England
- Chinese history and its relations with the outside world
- Witchcraft and witch-hunts in Europe and New England between the 15th and 18th centuries
Students are taught by award-winning academics from all over the world: their corridors are truly cosmopolitan. The Department also provides students with opportunities to explore local history and have close ties with the Essex Record Office, one of the best county record offices in the UK.
