Introduction
MRes History
The MRes provides excellent preparation for study at MPhil/PhD level for students with a defined research topic, but is also a degree in its own right.
The programme is primarily assessed by a 30,000-word dissertation on your chosen topic, but also incorporates two taught courses:
- Explorations and Debates in History investigates the ways historians have conceptualised and contested historical practice in the modern and early modern periods.Or
- Debates in Queer History explores experiences, articulations and understandings of lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans and queer lives and desires across period and region from medieval and early modern Europe to the present.
- Research Skills develops expertise in a variety of methodologies including the use of oral, visual and material, as well as textual, sources.
You'll be assessed by two 2,000- and one 4,000-word essays, and a 30,000-word dissertation. The dissertation may be followed by a viva voce.
