The BA Ancient History program combines rigorous academic study with flexible module choices that allow students to tailor their degree to specific interests whether in ancient warfare, imperialism, religion, or daily life in antiquity. The course emphasizes the critical use of primary sources, such as inscriptions, historical texts, and archaeological evidence, to reconstruct and understand the ancient world. Students benefit from fieldwork opportunities, study abroad options, and access to the university’s rich library and digital resources. Graduates are well prepared for careers in education, heritage, publishing, law, and public service, or for further postgraduate study in history or archaeology.
