Make sense of the modern world by learning how the past influences international politics in the present.

Explore the past, encounter diverse societies and explain cultural changes.

We’ve designed this programme to cover key themes such as the state system, security, and globalisation. Study through the lens of historical and contemporary examples, from the Haitian Revolution to the global financial crisis, while learning how to apply theory to the real world.

Studying in a city steeped in history, surrounded by outstanding museums, parliament and resources, you’ll expand your knowledge as you explore different histories and perspectives from Africa, Asia, Europe and the United States.

Focusing on your future.

Develop knowledge, skills, adaptability, and resilience to succeed in an ever-changing global job market and become active global citizens. We work with the Queen Mary Careers and Enterprise Centre to ensure you know how to communicate your competitive edge in the job market.

To succeed in the global market, you’ll acquire vocationally crucial skills such as critical thinking, information analysis, communication, deadline management, and an understanding and respect for other values and cultures.

We offer many ways for you to apply your knowledge into action. You can complete a placement with one of 60+ internship partners in the heritage sector through our History & Heritage Internship module or work closely with politics with our parliamentary internship.

You could contribute your writing and editing skills to our Queen Mary history journal stocked by the British Library. Or you could work on live business projects and offer professional insights with qHeritage.

You can complete your degree in three or four years. If you choose to study abroad, this will take place in Year 3 and Year 3 modules will instead be studied in Year 4.

Student Testimonial

The variety of modules offered was the main reason I chose Queen Mary. Within my degree I want to fully enjoy the modules, to be engaged to the highest level. I think the more you enjoy something the better you will do.

History and Politics

Teaching and learning

For each module you’ll usually receive two hours of weekly contact time, typically comprising a one-hour lecture followed by a one-hour seminar.

Formal teaching is supplemented by one-to-one discussions in staff office hours and feedback sessions.

For every hour spent in class, you'll complete a further two to three hours of independent study. This time is spent reading, preparing for study sessions, working on projects and revising for exams.

Assessment

Assessment is designed around a series of programme-level essays. These are based around your teaching and learning in modules, along with additional support outside modules. You choose which modules to write essays on, and deadlines are spaced so you can receive feedback on each essay before writing the next one.

In your final year you’ll work on a dissertation worth 25% of your final year mark, researching a specialised area of history that particularly interests you.

Membership of the Queen Mary Library, the University of London Library at Senate House, and reading access to other college libraries within the University of London
