Bachelor’s Degree Programme

CHARACTERISTICS

The Bachelor’s degree programme in History focuses on acquiring and developing theoretical and practical knowledge about the history of human society, based on the latest results of academic research, and on mastering its application in the fields of Slovak and general (world) history.

Students also gain fundamental competencies for the creative work of a historian, including the ability to understand primary sources and scholarly literature, to analyze and interpret them, and to produce their own academic and scholarly texts.

During the three-year programme, students complete courses not only in core historical disciplines, but also in auxiliary historical sciences, art history, historiography, and other complementary fields.

STUDY PROGRAMMES

History can be studied as a single-subject programme (Degree Programme in History) or within a teacher-training programme (History in combination with languages or other humanities and natural science disciplines, according to the current offer).

All study programmes to be opened at the Faculty of Arts, Comenius University (FiF UK) in the upcoming academic year can be found on the faculty’s website.

COURSE OF STUDY

Students attend compulsory and elective courses, which are conducted primarily in the form of lectures and seminars. They prepare seminar papers, and the first level of study is completed by the defense of a written Bachelor’s thesis.
