Meet us
Whether you're interested in undergraduate or master's study, or looking for postgraduate research opportunities, come along to our events to meet us and find out more about studying at Liverpool.
The History department here at the University of Liverpool offers a range of different modules ranging from Irish Vikings to the history of Chinese medicine. By studying the broad topics available, you will become more familiar with concepts about race, gender, religion, politics and anything else you might be interested in, as we are encouraged to explore our interests, especially during research projects like the dissertation at the end of the course. During my Masters degree, the history department has also allowed me to take modules from other departments such as English & Communications and the Sociology departments, which has been great to look at my dissertation topic from a different standpoint. This also shows how well the University as a whole can work together to expand the opportunities available to students.
