The Single Honours History programme in Exeter is a progressive one, building on a broad foundation in the first year, to highly specialised work in the final year, including the study of a particular subject in depth and a dissertation on a topic of personal interest. There is a huge amount of choice built into the History curriculum, with only one compulsory element, the History Foundation module in Year 1. You can build your own degree programme, selecting from a number of types of modules in each year as you are entitled to take up to one quarter of your modules in another department. Our students often take modules in Information Technology, English, Theology, Classics, Politics, Sociology and Arabic and Islamic Studies, and a variety of modern languages.
