Graduate Program

Picture Yourself as a Graduate History Student

Our Master of Arts in History program offers:

• faculty members who are active scholars and devoted teachers who offer students individual attention and close supervision
   
• colloquia and seminars where students engage with historical theory and practice, research and methodology, by reading and critiquing the work of contemporary historians
   
• the development and refinement of writing skills, honed first in course papers and later in the major research paper
   
• preparation for continuing with the academic study of history at the doctoral level and for a variety of careers where the knowledge and skills of an historian are valued

M.A. Program

The M.A. program in History combines the craft of historical research, writing and analysis with an orientation to contemporary modes of historical interpretation. Most courses are organized around theme areas such as cultural and social history, history of medicine, colonialism or gender and sexuality -- permitting students to orient their own research to sources from Canada, Europe including Britain, the United States, Latin America, Africa or the Middle East.

Partial Distance

Starting in the Inter/Summer session of 2013 the History M.A. program will be offering partial distance education courses. For more information regarding these course options click here.
