The Ancient History (MRes) offers students whose interests centre on the study of ancient history the opportunity to take a specialist research-intensive degree tailored to those interests and to pursue their own independent research to a further extent than in an MA.
What you will learn
The Ancient History (MRes) is designed to provide students with a penchant for independent research the opportunity to pursue research into a subject of their own choice. The subject of the dissertation is discussed and agreed in advance, and it is expected that the choice of taught modules will relate to the research subject chosen.
The main general areas of research supervision in the School are:
•
Greek and Roman epic
•
Latin poetry of the late Republican and Imperial periods
•
Literary uses of mythology
•
Greek and Roman Africa
•
Hellenistic Asia Minor and the Near East
•
Identity, ethnicity and ethnogenesis in the Roman empire
•
Roman religion
•
Ancient Economy, particularly of the Greek Classical period and of the Roman empire
•
Greek and Roman historiography
•
Sex and Gender in the ancient world
•
Health and healing in the ancient world
Graeco-Roman relations with India
This programme is open to individuals with a background in counselling. Entry criteria is normally a 2.1 honours degree, but we may consider a good 2.2 honours degree (with a strong research dissertation). Whilst we may consider applications from those with a background in a closely related area, due to the nature of this programme this would depend upon an assessment of academic writing and psychological research skills.
