History

The undergraduate programme in History will enrich your historic knowledge on a global scale. During the course, apart from learning about local and national history through social, economic, warfare and other perspectives, we will also provide you with a wholistic historic lens of Western, European and Non-European countries. By learning history on an academic level, you will possess a deep appreciation and a heightened sense of awareness of contemporary international and local affairs through your firm grasp of historic patterns, events and foundations. We also encourage you to participate in the Erasmus+ programme, as we believe that a multicultural and diversified learning experience will give you a better learning experience.
