History and Politics
The History and Politics degree offers complementary approaches to major aspects of past and present human activity, and sets contemporary political problems in their historical perspective. The special interests of the staff in these two large departments cover most areas of the world. By selecting appropriate options students can pursue a special interest in the history and politics of a particular European country, the United States, Russia, or the Far East for example.
