About Ancient History, MA - at University of Liverpool

The MA in Ancient History provides intensive preparation for further research in Ancient History, as well as transferable skills and training that employers will value. 

Two core study methods and research skills courses will prepare you for the challenge of your MA and there are additional opportunities to study Greek and Latin at every level from beginners to advanced.

After the core modules you can choose from a unique range of specialist Greek and Roman history courses, all of which are taught in very small groups or one-to-one.

This allows you to tailor a programme to suit your research interests and agenda, and to complete your large-scale supervised dissertation on the agreed topic of your choice.
