Course summary

The MA in Modern History is for you. As a Master’s student, you’ll deepen your understanding of the people, cultures, nations and ideas that have influenced over two hundred years of history. You’ll be taught by a team of internationally recognised experts in political, international, imperial, social and cultural history. You’ll learn about developments around the globe: from Britain and its empire, across continental Europe and the Middle East, to South and East Asia and North America. Your programme will combine seminars with smaller tutorials and guided independent study. At the heart of your MA experience will be your dissertation, where you’ll explore a topic of your choice and produce a piece of original research. In joining us, you’ll become part of a vibrant community. Norwich is rich in resources for the study of modern history, including archives at UEA, Norfolk Record Office and the Sainsbury Institute for the Study of Japanese Arts and Cultures. Our MA programme will also equip you with essential skills: problem-solving, self-discipline, independent working, critical judgement, and excellent oral and written skills. Our graduates have gone on to careers as varied as law, finance, the Civil Service, local government, heritage, tourism and teaching – with many more besides. And if you’re thinking of taking your study of history even further, our MA will provide a vital foundation.
