MA History is an exciting opportunity to study global history through local lenses and explore the history of environmentalism, indigenous voices, war reporting and gender history.

Through innovative, digital and real-world assessments, MA History prepares students for their professional futures by equipping them with transferable and essential analytical, research and management skills. Students are given insights in the ways in which the history of modern society, culture and the media shape the modern world today.

MA History prepares students for future postgraduate study whilst also upskilling them in preparation for a more specialist job market that increasingly requires strong communication, research and analytical skills.

The focus on media and global history equips students with a wide range of digital and intercultural skills through a diversity of assessments which prepares them for a mediatised and culturally diverse globalised job market. This MA course will be useful for a wide range of careers from business, public service, financial management, teaching, education and the arts.
