Course summary

This innovative MA course is one of the first in the UK to focus specifically on global and comparative history, offering you the chance to investigate one of the most dynamic areas of current historical enquiry and debate. Our modules are taught by a team of experts, ensuring that you are exposed to as many different viewpoints and approaches as possible.In the first term you will study two core modules. ‘Theory, Skills and Methods’ provides a foundation in historical methods and theoretical frameworks used to study society and culture from the early modern period to the contemporary world. ‘Themes in Global and Comparative History’ examines this emerging field, the methods it adopts, the subject areas it addresses and the criticisms it has attracted. Throughout, you are encouraged to explore how the global can be investigated in relation to the regional and the local, as part of wider debates on historical methods and interpretation. This provides a route into studying major regions of the globe, including Latin America, India and China.In the second term, you will select two optional modules in which you can explore themes and approaches to the historical study of religious cultures gender and sexuality science and technology empire consumption and the medical humanities.
