<strong>Overview</strong><br/><br/>Are you as interested in Tudor intrigues as you are in battles over Brexit? Do you want to explore today’s political world while studying its roots? And do you want to spend a year gaining invaluable employment experience? If so, then our BA History and Politics with a Placement Year degree is for you. From the ancient world to our own global politics, you’ll choose from modules which stretch across borders and through time. <br/><br/>You’ll learn from experts in both history and politics, drawing on a wide range of options to develop a deep understanding of the two subjects – and the relationship between them. As well as the knowledge you gain, you’ll build invaluable skills in critical thinking, communication and digital literacy. <br/><br/>You’ll study the past and present alongside one another, with your first year giving you a firm grounding in both subjects. Afterwards, flexibility will be at the heart of your degree: in your second and fourth years, you’ll split your time between history and politics in the way that suits you best. On BA History and Politics with a Placement Year, you’ll normally spend 9-12 months of your third year in a placement, gaining invaluable working experience and employability skills in a relevant area of your choice. <br/><br/>Norwich is an ideal place in which to study, with its historic centre reflecting its journey from medieval hub to radical modern city. On our beautiful campus, you’ll benefit from our strengths in British, European and global research, including internationally-renowned centres in Eastern European history and East Anglian studies. Our network of partnerships with the region’s leading heritage organisations, such as Norfolk Museums gives you the chance to experience history first hand. Our graduates go on to careers reflecting their passions: in parliament, government, the Civil Service, law, finance, heritage, media, teaching and many more besides. And if you’re thinking of taking your study of history and politics further, our degree will provide a vital foundation. <br/><br/><strong>Disclaimer</strong><br/><br/>Course details are subject to change.
