BA German and History

If you’re passionate about history but also dream of spending time in Germany and becoming fluent in the language – how do you choose which degree to study? We say, choose both!

This joint honours course allows you to combine your curiosity for human experience with your love of communicating in another language.

With History modules ranging from ‘Media in Germany’ to ‘Travel and adventure in the Medieval World’ and German modules taking you from ‘German Colonialism’ to ‘Mythology in German Literature’ – you’re able to truly personalise this degree around your personal interests or career aspirations.

Many of our students say the year abroad is their course highlight. Not only do you have the opportunity to fully immerse yourself in the German language and culture, but spending time abroad can make you more independent and confident. Taking yourself out of your comfort zone won’t only benefit your degree, it’ll shape the person you are to become.
