Medieval and Renaissance Studies, Master 1 subject

…as a research-focused Master’s degree course with an interdisciplinary approach, it offers the chance of deepening the expertise and competencies acquired in the BA course; in addition to teaching the theory of medieval and early modern history in its transdisciplinary and cross-epochal breadth and width (subject matters, methods, sources, research controversies), the degree course also provides practice-oriented elements.
Students are, moreover, given the opportunity at a very early stage to put themselves and their work to the test – e.g. in the MaRS research colloquium – and to forge links by participating in various events that are also attended by MaRS teaching staff (e.g. workshops, conferences); later, they are given the opportunity to gain further academic qualifications, e.g. by writing a doctoral thesis.
