Best UK unis for History and International Relations?

Hi, I'm currently in year 12 and looking to do a dual degree in History and IR. It's a fairly 'obscure' degree and not many unis offer it / not many rankings exist, so I was wondering what is the general list of good unis that offer this course

Hi there,

If you have a look here: https://www.whatuni.com/degree-courses/search?q=international-relations-and-history you will see all the UK universities that offer this combination, as well as ratings.

At SOAS we offer a BA History and International Relations, you can look at the course pages here: https://www.soas.ac.uk/study/find-course/ba-history-and , https://www.soas.ac.uk/study/find-course/ba-international-relations-and

SOAS takes a uniquely global and postcolonial approach to history and International Relations, you can study interesting courses that are not offered at other universities. I loved my International Relations degree and was able to study East Asian politics taught by leading academics!

If you have more specific questions about SOAS feel free to contact one of the student ambassadors via Unibuddy: https://www.soas.ac.uk/study/chat-student or come along to our next open day!
Hope this helps.
