As you progress through the course, you will choose from a combination of modules, equally balanced between history and politics. You will study the history and politics of Scotland, Britain, Europe, North Atlantic and North America.

You will learn through a combination of face-to-face and VC classes at your college and individual online study via the UHI virtual learning environment (VLE,) with support from your tutors and studies adviser.
