York has played a central part in many of our country’s stories. It's been a seat of royal power and a site of rebellion. York has been home to the magnificent York Minster and industrial slums. It's been both an administrative centre and a strategic target. With a rich selection of original sources including museums, libraries and historical sites, it is an inspiring place to study.

As well as inspiring you and helping you become a skilled historical researcher, this course provides opportunities to gain work experience and transferable skills. Our History, Community and Culture module provides experience in history-related careers and includes an integrated work placement.

You can take advantage of our extensive partnerships with heritage sites, archives and businesses across the city. Our connections include York Museums Trust, York Explore and Yorkshire Film Archive. Through these partnerships you can explore archived treasures, create historical exhibitions and build professional networks.

Teaching and learning

You will experience many different teaching methods and techniques. From lectures and interactive workshops to seminars, we encourage both independent and collaborative learning. As well as working with others, you will have opportunities for 1 to 1 meetings with tutors, who will provide you with additional support.

Enhance your learning through field trips within the historic city of York to uncover the past in our archives and the built environment all around us.

You will typically study 3 modules each semester. Each module will normally have 3 hours of contact time each week, so you will have a minimum of 9 hours each week of teaching. Alongside your timetabled contact time, you will need to study independently. This will ensure that you get the most out of your degree, as well as building valuable time management skills.
