Our Research in History and Heritage
Teaching on our History and Heritage programmes is shaped by the active research of specialist academics working across a wide range of historical fields.
In History, research expertise spans modern and contemporary history, including consumption, protest, policymaking, travel, sexuality, war and nationalism in Europe and North America, alongside medieval and early modern political, administrative, gender, social, cultural and religious history. In Heritage, research interests include the protection and interpretation of tangible and intangible heritage, sustainable approaches to heritage management, material culture and its meaning, and themes such as overtourism and dark tourism.
Research on the history and heritage of Wales is a central strength within the School, covering the post-Roman period through to the twenty-first century and placing Welsh history and culture within wider national and international contexts.
