You'll also gain valuable skills in research, analysing evidence and retrieving information. First-year units provide a broad introduction to modern history in Australian, European and world history. Upper-level units reflect the University's strengths in world history, postcolonial history, media history, European history and Australian history. Upper level courses reflect the department's strengths in European history, world history, post-colonial history, cultural history, and Australian history. Learn the following skills: understanding change management critical and analytical thinking communication skills cultural awareness problem-solving social engagement sound judgement.

Part of what makes Macquarie future focused is that we allow you the freedom to explore your interests across a range of areas, rather than lock you in to a single, narrow field. So follow your passions and tailor your course to your needs and interests.
