Content

This joint honours degree in history and politics offers you the chance to study two distinct but complementary subjects, based in the Highlands and Islands of Scotland, yet with an international approach that will prepare you for life and employment beyond university.

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.

Each year, you will build on your analytical and research abilities through a series of skills modules.

You can also choose to specialise in Scottish History at the upper levels and graduate with a BA (Hons) Scottish History and Politics degree.
