Political turmoil. Changes in the concept of punishment. Beliefs about magical beings. History provides insight into the past to help us understand the present and to explore how the world has changed. Whether you’re a history enthusiast or a graduate looking for your next steps, our MA History will challenge your thinking and give you the freedom to explore.
You’ll begin with a core module to help you study effectively at postgraduate level and prepare for completing your dissertation. Then it’s up to you to pick from our options. You might look at areas that dominate the news, or maybe you’re eager to explore a certain time period.
Whatever you choose, you’ll learn from our leading researchers so what you learn will reflect the most recent developments in various historical fields.
You can expect one to one time and detailed feedback on your work. And there are often guest speakers on campus too. Recent speakers include, Gary Sheffield, military historian, author and History Channel contributor, and Lord Powell, foreign policy adviser to Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher.
You should normally hold a minimum of a second class honours degree (2:2), or equivalent, in History or in a related subject. If it is some time since you completed your undergraduate education and you do not meet the standard requirement, it may be possible to consider your application based on evidence of other relevant personal and professional experience and the support of your referees.
