If you want to explore history, while specialising in the politics and culture of the USA, there’s no better place to study it than Portsmouth, a city with a rich heritage of its own. On this BA (Hons) History with American Studies degree, you'll study the periods of British and global history that interest you most, while you focus a proportion of your studies on the United States of America.  When you explore the USA, you'll examine contemporary and historical issues about American society, such as its politics and constitution, literature and culture, its foreign policy and global impact, the founding of the Republic, and minority and gender histories.
