Course summary

This course will make you re-think what you know about the Middle Ages and open your eyes to the medieval legacy that remains all around us.

At UEA you’ll be taught by internationally recognised scholars. Focusing on the years between 900 and 1500, they’ll help you understand the political, ecclesiastical, social and cultural history of medieval England and Western Europe.

Across two years, you’ll explore medieval history through seminars and tutorials, which will also equip you with the skills to access medieval sources. In your second year, you’ll put your skills into practice, pursuing your own historical research in a dissertation.

Norwich is an ideal city to study medieval history in. Not only does it retain many medieval buildings, but our historians have access to Norfolk Record Office’s vast collection of documents, as well as to the cutting-edge archaeological and heritage work of Norwich Castle Museum.

Our part-time MA will open all kinds of paths for you. Graduates come from across the world to study with us. Many have gone on to undertake doctoral study, and this could be your first step towards becoming a professional historian. The skills you’ll learn will serve you equally well in careers as diverse as heritage and tourism, teaching, law, and many other professions.
