Are you interested in deeper and more expansive knowledge about a dynamic, exciting and socially relevant subject? Then the master Program in History is the right choice for you. History has never been more relevant. We are surrounded by fake news and a multitude of media outlets that engage in the contemporary trend of using historical perspectives to legitimise everything from genocide and insurrection to the crafting of individual identities. The need for historical knowledge and the ability to critically evaluate sources will likely increase in several professions.

The Religious Roots of Europe (RRE) is a two-year Master’s programme with a unique, comparative focus on the early, formative history of Judaism, Christianity and Islam, as well as their interactions in both past and present. RRE combines a thorough study of ancient sources with contemporary challenges in an inspirational community of internationally recognised scholars and students from various backgrounds. RRE can be studied either in Lund or from a distance, as long as compact seminars are attended, beginning with an excursion to ancient Rome. The programme can lead to doctoral studies, and gives much-needed expertise for government institutions and churches, as examples.
