A degree in history will give you plenty of opportunities to connect what you learn in the classroom to the wider world of work. Universities do this because they want you to see how your academic studies translate into real-life settings, while helping you build the skills and confidence you need to succeed at university and beyond. These activities can typically be grouped into work-based learning and work-related learning.
Work-based learning involves spending time with an employer to apply your learning in a real workplace through activities like internships or placements. Work-related learning refers to the activities within the classroom that link your studies to the world of work, such as hearing from an industry guest speaker or tackling a real-world problem as part of a project.
