Basic information
Before contacting the Department of History's academic advisors, you should - if you have not already done so - familiarise yourself with the basic documents for organising your history studies. We have compiled these on a separate webpage. Please inform yourself about the basics of your degree programme there before visiting the Student Advisory Service! Please note that study plans, module handbooks and examination rules and regulations differ depending on the version of the examination regulations in which you are enrolled. Make a note of your questions.
Internships
