Undergraduate History History offers subjects in social history, the social and political consequence of war, feminist history, revolution and colonialism, representation and history, world history and cultural and labour history.
Emphasis lies on Australia, Europe, South East Asia and the Americas.
As students progress through the levels of a History major, the subjects offered become more sophisticated in approach. 300-level subjects place greater emphasis on comparative and theoretical aspects of the discipline and encourage students to undertake original research. Students with demonstrated ability and an interest in historical research may undertake honours, a fourth year of specialised historical enquiry and research. Certain History subjects are well-suited to programs containing a major in Australian Studies and Resource and Environmental Studies. The History and Politics Program also offers a Joint Major for students with an interest in both disciplines.
