A visit to the Battlefields of the First World War gives your students a unique opportunity to develop a deeper global understanding of war and conflict.

Psychology students can learn more about the ethics of the First World War, discover personal stories of warfare, experiences on the battlefields and how individuals returned to their lives post war as post-traumatic stress disorder was described and diagnosed for the first time.
