This MA programme explores the making of the modern world from a global point of view. It focuses on the rapidly developing connections between different human societies from the later eighteenth century and the emergence of novel cultures, ideologies and forms of global economic activities. The programme features a wide range of comparative and interdisciplinary studies. You will be encouraged to develop both conceptual and theoretical approaches to the understanding of the modern world, as well as learn research methodologies appropriate to your chosen fields of specialisation.

Second-class honours degree and references. We also offer a 1-year Graduate Certificate in History, which can be used as a conversion course if you want to study history at postgraduate level, but have a degree in a significantly different discipline.
