Course summary

Develop and implement a programme of research with experienced supervisors specialising in the period from the late eighteenth century to the present including topics in imperial and global history, women's and gender history, European history, popular culture, and politics in Britain. All our courses are designed around a set of key principles based on engaging you with the world, collaborating with others, challenging you to think in new ways, and providing you with a supportive environment in which you can thrive. As an example, Research Excellence Framework (REF) 2021 Impact Case Studies for History showcased work on Germany’s black diaspora and on feminism, anti-slavery, and dissent. You'll work with a supervisory team that includes a Director of Studies and one or more additional supervisors with expertise and interest in your research area. Your supervisors help you to define and plan your research programme, agree any associated training requirements, and provide direction while supporting you to develop as an independent researcher.Throughout your course you'll have opportunities to interact with academics and specialists in your field. Funds are available for you to present your work in professional academic settings at international and national conferences and we will encourage you to submit papers and seek opportunities to publish and engage different audiences with your research. All our doctoral students make a vital contribution to the intellectual life of the University from the earliest stages of their research.
