Welcome to the Department of History & Welsh History

We are delighted that you’ll be joining us in the Department of History and Welsh History in September. Our Department is based in the History and International Politics Building and you can find us here.

During Welcome Week, we will be holding a series of welcome events in the Department that will help you settle into all areas of university life. These events will introduce you to your course, allow you to get to know members of staff in the department, and, most importantly, give you opportunities to meet your fellow History students. Attending these events will also familiarize you with the Department's physical location and help you feel at home in the Department of History and Welsh History.

You will be able to view a full timetable of our Department’s events from early September here.

We can’t wait to welcome you to Aberystwyth! Further updated information around AberWelcome 2025 will be available here soon. Keep a look out for all the useful information to help you prepare for life with us as a new student at Aber!
