What is nineteenth century studies? It’s exploring key aspects of Romantic and Victorian society and the lasting legacies of the period.

Take the next step in your teaching, academic or heritage career on our MA Nineteenth-Century Studies course taught by our cross-discipline team of specialists. You’ll choose from a range of modules to suit your literary or cultural interests.

From Romantic creativity to Victorian entertainments and criminality, you’ll study with experts in nineteenth-century literature, history, cultural heritage and digital humanities.

Throughout the course, you’ll develop advanced academic writing and research skills and gain insights from classic and lesser-known texts. We’ll encourage you to uncover how the debates and developments of the period shape popular culture today.

Become a research-active scholar. You’ll contribute to current research on field trips and work with cultural heritage organisations. You’ll gain in-demand skills for the education and heritage industries.

Your future career

You’ll graduate with the knowledge, skills and expertise you need for a wide range of postgraduate careers. Possible career paths you could choose include:

  • arts organisation and management
  • the heritage industry
  • publishing
  • advertising
  • journalism
  • libraries and learning centres
  • management/administration
  • teaching (further training required)

Our MA Nineteenth-Century Studies introduces you to advanced academic debates. You’ll leave us with the independent research skills needed to continue to PhD level. This could be your next step to a career as a professional researcher.

Your future career is important to us. Your Personal Tutor will meet you at the start of the course to discuss your career aspirations and identify the best way for us to support them.
