There are a number of ways you can fund your postgraduate degree.
A History MA will give you numerous skills highly valued by employers, ranging from detailed analysis of complex source materials, considered and critical report writing, excellent research and organisational skills to persuasive presentations made using detailed evidence.
Historians find work in a wide variety of different fields. Some are intrinsically linked to the study of History such as museums, cultural heritage, archiving or research and teaching. Others use the excellent skill set gained from a History Masters degree to forge careers in areas such as the public sector and government, think tanks and policy, security and intelligence services, law, Journalism, media, publishing, human resources and non profits and NGO’s (Non Governmental Organisations).
Compulsory/Core modules
The MA History Dissertation provides an opportunity for you to complete an independent research project within an area of historical inquiry related to your chosen ‘stream’ for Mastering the Field. You will be encouraged to pursue your own intellectual interests, applying the skills you have developed on your other MA modules. You will be assigned an appropriate supervisor for your chosen topic, and will begin meeting with them in Semester 2, with the bulk of the research and writing completed during Semester 3, leading to completion of a 12,000 word dissertation by the early summer.
