Overview

Analyze beliefs and concepts and consider how past societies worked with the BA History and Philosophy. Studying history and philosophy allows students to question their assumptions and trace the origins of modern societies and cultures. Discover a thousand years of history whilst experiencing all the specialist areas on offer at the University of Reading. The History Department's expertise covers a wide range of regions, from Europe and Africa to America, South Asia and the Middle East. Module choices cover diverse periods and topics, from the Crusades to the 1960s, slavery in America to Tudor monarchy, and Cold War Berlin to medieval magic. In first year, core modules will explore people, politics and revolution, finding out how people struggled for power in past societies; and the culture and concepts those societies developed. Studying philosophy will equip students with the ability to think logically, to evaluate arguments critically, and to challenge their own ideas and those of other people. The first year will introduce students to the general skills required for all philosophy and they will also have the chance to explore non-western philosophies such as Indian philosophy. Placements are encouraged as they provide students with a chance to put their newly acquired knowledge and skills into practice as well as allowing them to gain valuable real-world experience. Through Reading's links with the Careers, Placement and Experience Centre, students can source potential employers and help with CVs and letters of application.
