History at Kingston is both friendly and cutting-edge. We offer strong personal support to our students, and research-led teaching that is exciting and relevant to the modern age. We also draw extensively on London's vast historical resources. Students enjoy our focus on world history, and on the cultural history of ordinary people's lives and leisure. Using film, music, mock elections and interactive technology, we encourage lively student discussion on historical topics that matter today, like slavery, human rights, fascism and imperialism.
You can study history as a single or joint honours degree alongside another subject. See the course combinations section for more information.
