The University of Cambridge is the laboratory of our writing investigation. But the technological advancements are so much that we should not lose our focus.
Let us be restricted to the hypothesis given that “Entities called PH and V” exist and help us in comprehending the PH V-alue of the University.
Not dragging the puzzle anymore, let us come to the point.
Alphabets ‘P’ ‘H’ and ‘V’ are nothing but the usual ‘A to Z’ alphabets. These acronyms have been used to get to the point. That is to investigate the ‘P, H, V’ courses and their details that have been put under the latest 2024 undergraduate prospectus.
Courses starting with each of these letters shall be explored below.
Letter H has the following courses in store for us
- History
- History and Modern Languages
- History and Politics
- History of Art
- Human, Social, and Political Sciences
History
The field of history taught at the University of Cambridge is one of the interesting fields. Filled with experts and scholars in the field, the course of history is considered essential to understanding the past.
It is a three-year BA (Honors) degree and is available at all colleges.
Condition
An applicant is expected to be
- A level in many courses offered by the department or IB higher level history.
- If you are an IB person, you should have 40-42 points with 7 7 6 at the Higher level.
- Some colleges require written exams before a final call. Check https//www.undergraduate.study.cam.ac.uk/applying/admission-assessments for such colleges.
- The exam duration is one hour and requires you to write on a short historical theme with analysis and comparisons.
What can you explore?
- Since the course taught is dynamic, one expects to learn not just ‘The Economic Prosperity of the Mughal Empire’ that is History, but ‘Social conditions that sustained it’ (sociology) or ‘administrative strategies that furthered it.’ Hence the interdisciplinary approach taught to the students at the undergraduate level makes the field more fascinating to learn.
- The university also allows you to specialize in any field of your interest by allowing you to experiment with material as interesting as Hollywood movies, Middle Eastern newspapers, or plague records. Approaching learning through ‘popular culture’ is an emerging study worldwide and has helped in learning the unlearned.
What facilitates your study?
The University location in the first place is most important. That is because it has museums around it. The museums provide the student easy access to unlock the archives, manuscripts, and pamphlets, related to art, culture, or literature of any period. This can bring wonders in discoveries and research about history.
If you have that historian within you, this place may get more out of you.
Tuition fee
- The tuition fee for the Home fee status students starting their first undergraduate degree in 2023 will be £9,250 for the year.
