Bachelor in Licence - Histoire

Tuition fees are 178 EUR per year.

History as a university discipline examines past societies, events, and processes through the critical analysis of written records, artifacts, and other historical sources. Undergraduate history programs typically cover multiple periods and regions — ancient, medieval, modern, and contemporary history — alongside training in historiography, source criticism, archival research, and academic writing. Students learn to construct arguments from primary and secondary sources, situate events within broader political, social, economic, and cultural contexts, and communicate historical analysis clearly in essays and oral presentations. Many programs also include options in related fields such as geography, political science, or art history, and some offer regional specializations, such as French, European, or world history. The skills developed in a history degree — research, critical reading, argumentation, and writing — are broadly transferable, and graduates pursue a wide range of careers, including teaching, archival and library work, museum and heritage management, journalism, publishing, public administration, and research. Many students continue to master's-level study in history, education, or related humanities and social science fields, particularly those aiming for teaching careers or academic research. This Licence in Histoire is offered by Université Le Havre Normandie, located in Le Havre, France. It is a bachelor's-level degree completed over three years, with instruction delivered in French. The program is scheduled to begin in September, and the yearly tuition is 178 EUR, in line with standard tuition at French public universities. Prospective applicants should confirm current admission requirements with the university.
