Modern history delves into the events, ideologies, and societal changes that have shaped the world from the late 15th century to the present day. It’s a vital and intellectually rewarding field of study which fosters a deeper understanding of our past and provides insights into many contemporary global challenges. Commonly studied topics include economy and trade, government organisation, migration and immigration, religion, science and technology, social organisation, and significant wars. Studying modern history at postgraduate level allows students to specialise in specific eras, regions, or research areas. The applications of a modern history degree are varied, and can include work as a historian, educator, researcher, historical consultant, or museum curator.
