This module explores a number of key skills that students as historians are using in their courses and how this set of skills fits to a great range of other career choices. Divided into three parts, students will first find out how historians communicate their work to the public and what skills they use for doing so. In the second part, the module will focus on the current labour market and students will explore how their abilities can be presented as convincingly as possible and how these skills fit do different career options. After having established a set of key skills and practised the presentation of them, the third part of the module will focus on the different choices and career opportunities our former history students have made. In four panel discussions, former students and other experts will visit the History Department to talk about the professions they decided to go into with their history degrees. While some of these professions are closely linked to the subject of history, others are not at all.
