Medieval Studies (BA) | Bachelor's degree | Humanities & Culture | On Campus | 3 years | University of Wales Trinity Saint David | United Kingdom
We are one of only two institutions offering this degree at undergraduate level. It is an interdisciplinary degree that draws upon History, English, Religious Studies and Archaeology and thus allows you to explore all aspects of the medieval world.
The Medieval Studies program at UWTSD allows students to explore many different aspects of this rich and vibrant period of history. It combines a study of change over time in broad sweeping survey modules with more focused, topic-centred modules.
Students will encounter multiple approaches to and source materials for our understanding of the medieval past, with a particular focus on utilising the onsite archive of manuscript and printed primary sources. This results in a rounded and comprehensive program of study which grounds students in the requisite theories, methodologies and practices of the discipline of history.
Overall, the Medieval Studies program gives students appreciation of the techniques and approaches of historians and other scholars, plus a multifaceted, holistic understanding of world history.
