Course Overview

On our BA History and Sociology, you are encouraged to explore the ways in which the two disciplines influence and inform one another.

As a student of history, you discover both the early modern and modern periods and explore challenging questions concerning the impact of political, social, and cultural change on individuals, social groups, and regions.

As a sociologist, you investigate what connects people with each other, as well as what divides them. We consider every aspect of our daily lives, from how we relate to politicians, celebrities, and friends, to how we define ourselves, our families, and others. You study a wide range of topics and specialisms, including colonialism, inequality, culture, identity, citizenship, multiculturalism, and human rights.

Our History department has strong links with the Essex Record Office, which is one of the best county record offices in the UK.
