Distance Learning Degree relevant to Genealogy
« on: Monday 24 April 17 20:21 BST (UK) »
Hi there,

I have always wanted to further my education and get a degree as I fell in love, dropped out of uni and got married instead. I would love to learn more about genealogy and history that would help me in my family history and one-name studies. I am aware of some postgraduate courses but wondered if anyone knows of a distance learning undergraduate degree course I could do which would be on or related to genealogy?

Thanks

My friend, who is a very keen genealogist, did a history degree with the open university, and found it very interesting and helpful. I think there were lots of different modules to choose from, so she was able to pick those that she thought were most relevant to local and family history.
