History subject tasters available led by our academic staff in a range of different topics.
Our History academics can cover a wide range of subjects including American History and the Deep South, Soviet Russia and the Early Modern period. Find out what we can offer your students by geting in touch and let us know what you are teaching.
Alternatively, we also offer a session on Fake History, (in person or online) led by one of our Outreach Team members, which encourages students to think about the sources they are using and to consider what makes them reliable.
Current Subject Talks:
The Truth is in the Telling:
The aim of the session is to encourage students to become detectives of the past; conducting research, finding new interpretations and forming arguments based on the facts that they discover. We will also discuss the skills needed to become a historian, as well as the jobs available to you when you study History.??
The African American Experience in the 1930s:
This session examines the different ways in which African Americans attempted to tackle the effects of the Great Depression and Jim Crow segregation.
