Dual degrees

Dual honours degrees allow you to combine your study of history with another complementary subject. You will normally spend an equal amount of time and credits in each subject.

Major/Minor option

On many of our dual degrees, you can also choose to specialise more in one subject, by dividing your degree so that one-third (40 credits) is the minor subject and two-thirds (80 credits) are the major subject.

You do not need to decide before arriving in 91ֱ��, and have the option to change the major/minor balance or switch back to a 50:50 split when choosing your modules for each year of the degree.

Please note that this option is not available for dual degrees with Politics, Japanese and Chinese.
