The innovators of the 21st century think across arts, science, engineering, humanities and enterprise to deliver innovative products, services and ways of living. They will be team players with a breadth of skills and qualities that enable them to work across specialisms and cultures.


This course combines in-depth subject specialism at the university alongside interdisciplinary, practice-based learning. In conjunction with your history studies, you will apply your subject knowledge by translating ideas into innovative solutions, which may include plans for digital and creative enterprises, both social and commercial.


The course will equip you for researching and communicating history by treating you as a historian from day one. You will study a broad range of historic cultures and societies and have opportunities to explore life in the past from the medieval world to the modern day. You will develop your historical skills through a mix of core units, a wide choice of specialist optional units and substantial pieces of independent research. Small-group seminar teaching, supported by lectures and workshops, facilitates student discussion and debate.


Group work is a core component of teaching and learning in innovation. You will come together with students from other innovation disciplines, such as theatre, finance and electrical and electronic engineering. Each subject contributes a different perspective on a challenge as you identify needs and develop ideas. By drawing on your unique ideas and views on the world, you will learn from your subject and other students to develop innovative solutions together. You will also develop personal skills with opportunities for individual development and pursuit of topics and projects driven by your own interests and values.


By the time you graduate, you will have a portfolio of work ranging from live client projects to planning your own entrepreneurial venture. You will have learned how to evaluate the potential of products and services and how to sustain new endeavours including through financing. Importantly, you will have cultivated a network of peers and advisers who have worked with you through your studies.

The Centre for Innovation and Entrepreneurship will be located in the University’s new Temple Quarter Enterprise Campus, opening 2026, where your Innovation units will be taught. Here, a new Centre student hub, Active Learning Studios, a hands-on Maker Space and event spaces will provide the backdrop for challenge-led learning and enhanced links with businesses.


Your History units will be taught on the Clifton Campus, home to the University’s main library, the Students’ Union and more.
