Overview
This highly original History - Eighteenth-Century Worlds programme from University of Liverpool gives you the opportunity to study in one of Britain’s leading Atlantic ports; a city rich in eighteenth-century history, architecture and culture.
Researching the subject is a real pleasure in Liverpool. The city is home to more national museums and galleries than any other English city outside of London.
The expertise of our research-active tutors and the combination of modules makes this a unique course, following the trajectory to a global world during the eighteenth century.
