This optional module provides students with the opportunity to engage in a project-based work placement, to take place in a relevant public history, policy-focused or practice-based institution, such as a museum, archive or charity. The students will normally spend one day per week during the semester working with the chosen institution, which might involve developing a public engagement project, providing policy briefings, etc. In addition, they will attend fortnightly seminars on career development and academic approaches to public history, policy and practice.
