About BA History, BA, UG:Bachelor - at Regent's University London

This is an American degree, four years in length.

In the History major you will study different periods of time and different geographical and political areas.

You will learn how critically to evaluate historical evidence, to reach your own interpretation of it and to present your conclusions.

Students who study History at Regent’s University have London as their classroom. The city itself has two millennia of history behind it. This history may be discovered in the documents of London’s archives and in its historic buildings and landscape.

You will need three credit hours in a non-native language (this requirement is waived for students who are studying in English as their second language).

Why should I choose this programme?

Historians have always been valued by employers for their ability to master data and for other transferrable skills.

In the contemporary environment where people may change jobs many times in their working lives, and where jobs are being created which did not now exist in the last decade, this transferability and flexibility will be even more important.

Future opportunities

Historians have always been valued by employers for their ability to gather, evaluate, interpret and present evidence.
