Explore Modern History at UEA and observe the progression of global events from the 1789 French Revolution onward. You'll develop comprehensive knowledge about key historical transformations, extending to contemporary figures like Putin and Trump, along with pivotal moments such as Brexit.
Your historical expertise will provide critical perspectives on current global issues. Upon graduation, you'll possess specialized understanding of modern challenges, particularly in political and international spheres – while also honing research, analytical, and communication abilities that are highly valuable for careers or further academic pursuits.
Picture yourself examining Queen Victoria's personal journals, interpreting Nazi documents about the Olympics, or assessing how Cold War pop music influenced society. These represent just a few examples of the primary sources you might analyze while pursuing a Modern History degree at UEA.
