2. Description of the Programme

The History and Archaeology programme builds on a broad foundation in the first year, to highly specialised work in the final year, including the study of a particular subject in depth.

You will become grounded in the main themes of History through a combination of both broad and detailed focuses on particular aspects of the past, study of a range of time periods, and study of different geographical areas; who understand the methods which historians use to study the past; and who can analyse the development of past societies.

Archaeology will enable you to explore both the academic and practical dimensions of a uniquely fascinating discipline. Building on a firm foundation of the subject provided in the first year, the degree will give you a wide variety of choice to follow your particular interests. These can cover the microscopic analysis of ancient artefacts to the exploration of entire fossilised landscapes, from understanding prehistoric villages to recording historic buildings; the subject is broad, multi-disciplinary and dynamic.

As you work through your degree, you can develop your own specialisation, culminating in a dissertation supported by one-to-one tuition.

This programme is studied over four years. The first two years and the final year are university-based, and the third year is spent gaining employment experience at a suitable location in the UK.

This Employment Experience Abroad variant of the programme is a great way to incorporate graduate-level work placement or placements undertaken outside of the United Kingdom directly into your programme of study, to reflect critically upon these experiences, and for them to count towards the assessment of your degree. There is no better way to gain valuable employment experience that can be rewarded and recognised clearly by future employers. With preparation, support and approval from the College of Humanities, including in foreign languages if required, you can also demonstrate adaptability and resourcefulness by organising suitable placements in areas of employment related to your interests and potential future career. This variant of the programme also provides a great way to demonstrate to employers your adaptability, cultural awareness, independence and resourcefulness. Experiencing the differences and similarities of education and people in another culture will increase your confidence and broaden the ways in which you see and relate to the world and the world of work.

You are required to find your own placement with suitable employers and organisations with preparation, support and approval from the College of Humanities. If you are taking this variant you are strongly encouraged to take HUM2000 or HUM2001 (Humanities in the Workplace) at stage 2 and must participate in the pre-departure briefing sessions for Humanities Employment Experience Abroad.

Advice and guidance on your programme can be sought from your personal tutor and programme director. All staff offer regular office hours that you can drop into without a prior appointment for this purpose.

3. Educational Aims of the Programme

This programme aims to develop your competence in the subject-specific and research skills required in History and Archaeology, through extended engagement with primary sources and methodologies, relevant critical material, theoretical contexts, and through a combination of both broad and detailed focuses on particular aspects of the past, study of a range of time periods, and study of different geographical areas

You will acquire advanced competence in core academic, personal and key skills, providing a basis for career progression in the academic and professional worlds. You will be exposed to a variety of teaching and assessment methods within appropriate learning environments, supported by feedback and monitoring. You will also be given an opportunity to develop your independent study skills through a piece of individual research.  

The programme provides an intellectually stimulating, satisfying experience of learning and studying, and forms a sound basis for further study in History, Archaeology or related disciplines. It aims to develop a range of subject-specific, academic and transferable skills, including high order conceptual literacy and communication skills of value in graduate employment. History and Archaeology, like other programmes offered within the College of Humanities, encourages you to become a global citizen, a productive, useful and questioning member of society, and provides thorough training for further study or a specialist career. You may utilise the skills you develop in a range of sectors, including consultancy, market research, the civil service, education, teaching, new media industries

History

1, 2 and 3 are developed at stage one in the Making History module, Understanding the Medieval and early Modern World and Understanding the Modern World though lectures, seminars, and written work. 1 is further developed especially in the Uses of the Past module at stage two. 2 and 3 form the backbone of all modules taken at all stages, but the level of complexity and nuance develops according to stage with the Comparative Histories modules particularly focused on these skills. Students are encouraged to use the stage one Making History and stage two Doing History as a way of addressing 4, and concentrate on doing so in the Dissertation at stage 3. More generally, the choice of essays that they are given in all modules develops this skill in them from the outset of their programme. 5 is a requirement of all modules, but there is particular primary source emphasis - developing in complexity as the student progresses through the stages of the programme - at level 1 in Sources and Skills, Understanding the Medieval and early Modern World and Understanding the Modern World, at level 2 Doing History, and at level 3 in the Special Subject and Dissertation. Students are given clear guidelines about 6 in the Undergraduate Handbook, and are instructed in such matters in Making History, and are expected to demonstrate it in all modules. 7 is developed through the Sources and Skills and may be developed in other elective modules. Many modules have a requirement of some work with quantitative data.

Archaeology

8-10 are developed initially through first year modules, particularly ARC1020, and then through ARC2003/4, and in increasing sophistication through options during stages 2 and 3.

11 and 12 are introduced through first year modules, particularly ARC1010, and developed through thematic options at stages 2 and 3.

13-15 are introduced in ARC1020 and developed in ARC2003/4, and further enhanced through thematic options at stages 2 and 3.

16 is developed through the optional thematic modules taken across all three stages. The level of competence expected of students intensifies at each stage of the programme. Methodological issues area introduced through ARC1020 and developed through ARC2003/4. The chronological and thematic framework are introduced in ARC1010 and optional modules at stage 1 and developed through options at stages 2 and 3. ARC3000 at stage 3 brings the methodological and thematic elements together in an independent research dissertation.

The assessment of all these skills is through a combination of term-time essays, oral presentations, wikis, project and dissertation work, and examinations. The criteria of assessment pay full recognition to the importance of the various skills outlined.

...accommodated and facilitated by the following learning and teaching activities (in/out of class):...and evidenced by the following assessment methods:

20. Undertake independent study and work to deadlines.
21. Digest, select and organise material for written work and oral presentations, and write to varying word lengths.
22. Plan the execution of work over a very long time scale.
23. Participate in oral discussions; present and evaluate complex arguments and ideas orally; digest, select and organise material for oral presentations.
24. Work with others as part of a team on challenging material.
25. Interact effectively with peers and staff.
26. Undertake group work, including the presentation and discussion of material in groups.

20. is an essential part of the successful completion of the programme but is particularly developed in Doing History and the Dissertation. 21 is developed through essay and presentation work throughout the programme. 22 is developed through Making History at stage one (end of term deadline), Doing History at stage two (3 formal deadlines over the year) and, at stage three, through the Dissertation, whether in History or Archaeology, which has a single end of year deadline. 23 is developed through seminars, which form the whole or part basis of all modules. The skills in 24 and 25 are developed to some extent in all modules, through interaction in seminars and in discussion with tutors about essay work, and in response to criticism both collective and individual. However, there is particular emphasis on 23, 24 and 25 in stage one Making History, where students work as part of a team to present and respond to the presentations of others, and in the Uses of the Past and Comparative Histories at stages two and three and also the Archaeology fieldwork/fieldschool module.

The skills in 20 and 21 are assessed in all modules in History and Archaeology.

21 is particularly covered by the fact that students write essays which are summatively assessed of differing lengths, 

Doing History and Making History. Presentations (23) are formally assessed in ARC1030, Special Subjects: Sources and Comparative Histories. Team work skills (24 and 25) are formally assessed in Making History and Comparative Histories and the Archaeology fieldschool module.

7. Programme Regulations

Programme-specific Progression Rules

To progress to Stage 2 you must normally achieve an average mark of at least 50% in Stage 1. If you do not achieve an average mark of 50% in Stage 1, you will be interviewed to determine whether you can continue on the Employment Experience Abroad programme; if you do not succeed in that interview you will be required to transfer to the three-year programme. This is to ensure that only those students who are likely to succeed in their Employment Experience are selected. If you are unsuccessful in your application for Employment Experience Abroad, you will be transferred to the three-year programme.

HUM3997 Employment Experience Abroad counts as a single 120-credit module and is not condonable; you must pass this module to graduate with the degree title of BA History and Archaeology with Employment Experience Abroad. If you fail the Employment Experience your degree title will be commuted to BA History and Archaeology.
