Discover student life in the Department of History and Heritage

Our MA students share their experiences studying in the Department - from modules to study trips to placements. 

I’ve really enjoyed engaging with primary sources, particularly during our seminars in the Cadbury Research Library. The hands-on approach has made the learning experience immersive and brought historical research to life for me.

Extracurricular highlights

Our International Centre for Heritage offers a summer exchange programme with the Indian Institute of Heritage to help train future global heritage leaders. 

It has been such an amazing experience so far! The staff and students at the IIH have been so welcoming and we've already seen so much. My personal highlights have been meeting the staff at the National Ghandi Museum and riding in a tuk tuk for the first time.
