MA History
This is a one year, full-time course at MA level. On completion of the programme the student will have acquired the ability to identify and evaluate significant issues in contemporary historiographical discourse, a specialist knowledge of a select number of substantive historical themes studied through three elective modules, the ability to identify, locate and evaluate a range of primary and secondary sources relevant to the understanding of a selected research topic and a capacity to present the results of substantial independent research in a selected topic. In addition an elective Public History Internship affords students an opportunity to gain experience in partner museums and archives.
