“Like most freshers, I was quite nervous at the thought of my first week of university. However, it was soon clear that I had nothing to be afraid of! The History staff made every effort to put on a range of fun and informative activities that both confirmed to me my choice of course, and gave me plenty of opportunity to get to know my course-mates ”

“History at Leeds Trinity is a small and friendly subject area with a passion for the past! You’ll be studying a range of different historical topics while you develop excellent historical and transferable skills. We offer innovative forms of teaching and learning - watch out for the role-play and the posters - and we look forward to getting to know you!”
