Knowing the Past and Supporting Your Future
The History Program at Manchester University offers students a dynamic approach to the study of the past, examining the intellectual, social, cultural, political, and economic forces that have shaped human civilization. It provides students with the tools to explore historical narratives from diverse perspectives and across different regions of the world.
Through an engaging curriculum that spans from ancient to modern times, our program encourages critical thinking, research, and analysis, empowering students to understand the complexities of historical events and their lasting impacts on the present and future. It equips students with the knowledge and skills necessary to approach current events with a deeper understanding of their historical context and thus enables them to contribute meaningfully to discussions on social, political, economic, and cultural issues.
