You obtain a thorough grounding in the fields of modern history and politics, and will consider how the two disciplines can be integrated. Our strengths lie in public and social history at Essex, so we draw the lines between how individuals and societies have coped in times of political change, upheaval and uncertainty. We discuss democracy, communism, power and the consequences of politics throughout history. You also investigate the scope of political science as a field of inquiry, and the methods used by political scientists, in order to explore questions concerning both what does occur in politics, and what should occur in politics. There is a range of relevant options to choose from in both departments and you choose to write your final-year dissertation in either politics or history. You spend your third year studying abroad allowing you to experience other cultures and languages, to broaden your degree socially and academically, and to demonstrate to employers that you are mature, adaptable, and organised.

Many of our courses offer a choice of optional modules to tailor your learning experience. More information about these can be found on the University of Essex website.
