Paper1:
Conflict in the Modern World-International and British History
a) The Treaty of Versailles to the Cuban Missile Crisis
b) Britain in the Second World War
Paper2:
Governments in Action in the first half of the Twentieth Century

A comparative study of democracy in Britain 1905-1951, and Dictatorship in Germany 1918-1939
Paper 3:
The changing role and status of women in Britain since 1900 and Vietnam since 1939
Or Coursework Options.
It is departmental policy to make the delivery of the subject as interesting as possible, in order to promote an interest in, and a thoughtful approach  to our common heritage.
