Medieval and Early Modern Studies

About

An MA in Medieval and Early Modern Studies is increasingly regarded as a valuable extension of undergraduate study in that it:

offers you an anticipated edge in the professional job market
enhances applications for teacher training where advanced specialist knowledge can be an asset. The PGCE History team in the Education department at Canterbury Christ Church University strongly encourages students to gain an MA before applying for the PGCE
provides essential postgraduate experience for you if you intend to continue your study of premodern History or Literature at MPhil/PhD level
provides a period of study if you wish to take a career break.

This MA gives you the chance to study the Archaeology, Literature, History and Theology & Religion of these periods in a World Heritage site. You'll be able to choose from a range of modules taught by the leading experts in their field, design your own short courses, receive training in research skills, run your own reading group, undertake work placements, and complete a dissertation. You'll join a vibrant and supportive postgraduate community, where you can participate in and present at workshops, seminars, and conferences.
