Sorbonne University, Abu Dhabi, previously known as Paris Sorbonne University, Abu Dhabi, offers a Bachelor in History from its Abu Dhabi campus in the United Arab Emirates. History as an academic discipline examines past events, societies, and processes through the analysis of primary sources, archival material, and existing scholarship, helping students understand how political, social, and cultural developments have shaped the present. Coursework typically spans different regions and periods, alongside training in historical research methods, source criticism, and the construction of evidence-based historical arguments. Graduates of history programs develop strong research, analytical, and writing skills that apply to a wide range of careers, including roles in education, journalism, museum and archival work, publishing, and public policy. The discipline's emphasis on interpreting evidence and constructing clear arguments is also valued in fields such as law, diplomacy, and international relations, where understanding historical context informs current decision making. Some graduates pursue further study in history or related humanities and social science fields at the graduate level, while others move directly into careers that value strong analytical and communication skills developed through historical study. As a bachelor's degree, the program introduces foundational historical knowledge and research methods in the early years before allowing students to explore particular regions, periods, or themes in greater depth. Instruction is delivered in English, consistent with the standard practice at universities across the United Arab Emirates. The program is accredited by the UAE Commission for Academic Accreditation, confirming it meets the country's recognized quality standards for higher education. Students drawn to this field typically enjoy reading, research, and constructing well-supported arguments about the past.
