Studying history as an undergraduate with us means you will have access to a department of historians working at the cutting edge of their fields.
Your seminars will be in groups of 16 or fewer, and your assignments will receive detailed one-to-one feedback. You have a diverse and dynamic choice of modules that span 5,000 years of world history and are entirely research-led.
Our unique central London location means you are moments away from important cultural institutions such as the British Museum, British Library, Wellcome Collection and the Warburg Institute.
You will study the Writing History and Making History courses in your first year at UCL. Writing History will not only nurture the articulation of your ideas on paper but also give you the capacity to think critically about your writing.
