The Advanced Diploma in Local History is a one-year part-time course which aims to train students in key concepts and methods of historical studies. The course is at Undergraduate Level 3, equivalent to study in the third year at a university in the UK.
The course is delivered entirely via the Internet, so students will have the advantage of working at home while having access to course material, to their tutor, and to fellow students.
This is one of Oxford University's new programme of online courses, bringing the quality of education and scholarship which the University represents to those living far from Oxford and those who cannot attend regular classes.
Students taking the Advanced Diploma come from a wide variety of backgrounds, live in every part of Britain and beyond, and can be of any age. What they all have in common is an enthusiasm for local history and a commitment to learning.
