Program overview

A three year honours degree in pre-modern history, covering medieval and early modern Europe, source analysis, palaeography, historiography and a final year dissertation.

This period specialism suits someone drawn to archival work, since reading older documents is a skill the degree develops directly.

Bachelor of Arts (Honours) in Medieval and Early Modern History is taught at Bangor University, a public university in Wales with full degree awarding powers. Because the medieval and early modern history degree is a degree, it supports an application under the UK Graduate Route, which gives two years of unsponsored work in Britain after you finish. No job offer or sponsor is needed for the medieval and early modern history degree, but you must be inside the UK on a valid student visa when you apply. Your student visa covers the length of the medieval and early modern history degree plus a short period afterwards. UK rules from January 2024 bar a dependant partner or child on taught courses, so the medieval and early modern history degree does not support a family move.
