About this course

Hanes, sef Hanes yn Gymraeg, yw astudio sut mae cymdeithasau wedi newid dros amser: pam mae llywodraeth yn cael ei threfnu fel y mae, sut mae gwrthdaro yn codi ac yn cael ei ddatrys, a sut mae syniadau, crefyddau, a diwylliannau wedi llunio bywydau pobl ar draws gwahanol gyfnodau ac ardaloedd. Astudio Hanes ym Mhrifysgol Aberystwyth yw cael cyfle i archwilio'r gorffennol yn fanwl ac i ddatblygu'r sgiliau dehongli, dadansoddi, a chyfathrebu sydd mor werthfawr mewn bywyd cyflogaeth a thu hwnt.

Byddwch yn dysgu sut i ymchwilio i ffynonellau cynradd ac eilaidd, sut i werthuso tystiolaeth, ac sut i adeiladu dadleuon cymhleth ar sail ymchwil fanwl. Mae'r cwrs yn cwmpasu ystod eang o bynciau hanesyddol, a byddwch yn meithrin gallu i ystyried y gorffennol mewn cyd-destun, yn ogystal ag i feddwl yn feirniadol am y ffordd yr adroddir hanes a'r persbectifau sy'n dylanwadu arno. Mae trothwy mynediad nodweddiadol o 104 pwynt UCAS yn adlewyrchu rhaglen sy'n heriol ond yn hygyrch i ystod eang o fyfyrwyr.

Mae graddedigion hanes yn mynd ymlaen i ystod eang o yrfaoedd, gan gynnwys y gwasanaeth sifil, newyddiaduraeth, y gyfraith, addysg, ymchwil polisi, gwaith archifau a threftadaeth, marchnata a chyfathrebu, busnes, a sefydliadau anllywodraethol. Mae'r sgiliau dadansoddol a chyfathrebol a ddatblygir trwy astudio hanes yn cael eu gwerthfawrogi gan gyflogwyr ar draws pob sector. Mae llawer o raddedigion yn parhau i astudiaethau Γ΄l-raddedig mewn hanes, gwleidyddiaeth, y gyfraith, neu bynciau cysylltiedig.
