The MSc/Diploma by Research in History provides students with structured research training while at the same time enabling them to pursue a research project which they design themselves, in consultation with supervisors. It serves as both a self-contained research degree and a preparation for further study for the PhD degree.
The programme enables its participants to:
* develop a specific body of advanced knowledge;
* become competent in advanced historical methodology and in the evaluation of evidence through the close study of relevant primary and secondary sources;
* become familiar with historiographical debates and modes of historical explanation;
* develop rigorous historical argument;
* conceive and execute a coherent project in historical research and writing.
Contents
The programme consists of two compulsory training courses common to all History MSc degrees, and a dissertation on a subject chosen by the student. Two supervisors are assigned at the outset of the course for each student´s dissertation.
