About History, MA - at University of Sheffield

History shapes our society, culture, politics and economy - as well as who we are. Our History MA offers you the opportunity to work with world-leading experts to uncover these histories, while developing critical skills to evaluate historical sources in a world reshaped by digital technologies and AI.

Our History MA allows you to pursue the history that interests you most, from medieval and early modern to modern and contemporary periods. You'll join a thriving research community of internationally renowned historians and develop advanced techniques to research and understand history while tailoring the programme to your unique goals and aspirations.

You can choose from our diverse subject-specific modules, develop your knowledge and experience of public history and design your own independent research project in the dissertation.

You'll study various approaches to history, the importance of public history, and the expanding field of digital history. At the heart of the programme is a digital history project that you develop under the guidance of experts from the Digital Humanities Institute (DHI), the UK's leading center for digital humanities. This all helps you to build a broad range of transferable skills, including critical thinking, digital capabilities and interpersonal skills in collaborative work.

Whether you pursue further study or employment outside academia, you'll be prepared for a successful career.
