Course summary

COURSE OVERVIEW

Our MA European History offers you the chance to study at a department with world-renowned expertise in European history, including British, German, French, Italian, Balkan, Russian and Eastern European history, as well as international, transnational, global and comparative historical perspectives.

The course brings together these different fields and develops new approaches to the history of Europe from the Early Modern period to the present day. It provides you with an appreciation of key debates that have shaped our understanding of Europe and the most important historical and methodological approaches to critically interpreting the European past. Rather than presuppose one all-encompassing definition of 'Europe', whether geographical, ideological or otherwise, the course highlights the different contexts within which the European past and present can be analysed.

Alongside a wide range of option modules covering many aspects of European history and politics from the Early Modern period to the Cold War, you will also receive training in research methods and undertake your own dissertation, which makes this course an excellent entry point for more advanced study at either MPhil/PhD level or professionally.
