About Global History, MA - at University of Birmingham

The aim of this course is to put something very big under the microscope.

By expanding the scale at which historians would normally operate, our Global History MA will present you with an opportunity to think with growing confidence and imagination about your world, its origins, its complexities and continuous transformations across a uniquely broad geographical and chronological scope. You will be taught the latest skills, concepts and approaches to the subject, and you will share in the imaginative challenges and intellectual vistas that this exciting new field of history is opening up. It is from this largest of historical perspectives that you will be invited to choose your own specialist research topic, culminating in a supervised 15,000-word dissertation. Learning and teaching takes on this course place via seminars, tutorials, reading texts on theory and methods and your own research on primary sources.
