Location of Kings College London

The Georgetown-King’s Joint Master’s Degree in Global, International & Comparative History is a two-year programme involving one academic year of study at each institution. The degree offers students access to the combined talents of two-world class History departments, as well as the unrivalled research resources of Washington DC and London. King’s existing strengths in Modern and Early Modern British, Imperial, and continental European History complement Georgetown’s expertise in Middle Eastern, Russian & East European, East and South Asian, Latin American, African, US and Global Environmental History. This range of coverage provides students with an extraordinarily rich array of thematic, geographic, and cultural perspectives on the past. But Global History, as pursued in this joint master’s degree, is more than a roomy container for diverse interests. In both taught courses and their independent research, students will explore specific connections and rigorous comparisons that creatively link together various local and national histories.

Requirements

We welcome applicants with strong analytical, language, and writing skills who are seeking an MA program offering integrated comparative historical perspectives. The program will consider applicants who have completed a BA or equivalent degree in History, a social science, or literature and culture. In exceptional cases, we will consider strong applicants with majors in other fields. An undergraduate GPA above 3.3 is expected, and above 3.5 is encouraged. For applicants applying from the United Kingdom, the minimum requirement is a good upper second-class BA degree in History or a cognate discipline. Completion of the Graduate Record Examination (GRE) will be required as a precondition for consideration. Non-native speakers of English will be required to meet either the Georgetown Graduate School’s minimum score on the TOEFL exam or the King’s College School of Arts & Humanities’ minimum English language requirements.
