BA History Hons at Ahmedabad University Offline Course

History is more than just a list of dates and events. Rather than teaching through the memorisation of historical data, the Bachelor of Arts (Honours) Major in History at Ahmedabad University trains students to think historically, inviting them to participate in the rigours, pleasures and adventures of historical enquiry. This critical sensitivity to the past enables students to understand how the present has come to be, and forms the bedrock for endeavours to shape the future.

The Bachelor of Arts in History gives students a grounding in Indian as well as global history. This enables them to understand how people, communities, empires and nations have interacted with and shaped each other over the centuries. Students are trained in spoken and written communication, critical thinking, and evidence-based reasoning. Delivered by faculty members who are themselves active researchers, the major will not only equip students with qualitative analytical skills, but also train them in quantitative ways of approaching history.
