About this course

Explore and examine Greek and Roman civilisations, which may appear distant, but remain influential even today. International students that have already submitted a UCAS application should apply via our Clearing System. Ancient History explores the societies and cultures of Greeks and Romans, tracing how they developed during a period of well over a thousand years.

Societies and events of the Graeco-Roman world may appear distant but remain influential, even today, and have complex legacies. This degree will introduce you to the theories and methodologies that will help you grasp the variety of lived experiences that resulted from the ancient world. You’ll be supported as you develop new skills step-by-step, building on practice in class and constructive feedback, to be able to investigate, analyse and present ancient evidence effectively.

We’ll introduce you to different historical approaches; thinking about ancient lives and livelihoods, ways in which people shaped their environment, and how they developed ideas to explain the world around them.
