Philosophy encourages you to consider universal questions about human behaviour. And in History, you look at how these have affected society at key moments in time.
At Sussex, you join a politically and philosophically engaged community. Plus you benefit from resources such as The Keep Ð a state-of-the-art archive centre thatÕs close to campus.
