University of Sheffield, School of History, Philosophy and Digital Humanities Masters Degrees

We have 7 University of Sheffield, School of History, Philosophy and Digital Humanities Masters Degrees

The Department of History at the University of Sheffield is one of the most active centres for teaching and historical research in the UK. We offer expert teaching and supervision in a wide range of areas stretching from late antiquity to the contemporary period, extending geographically from North America to South Asia and from Britain to southern Africa. The Independent Evaluation of Teaching confirmed that we provide an excellent quality of education, informed by a high standard of research, imaginative thinking about the curriculum and innovative methods of delivery. We combine this with an excellent rating of 5 for our research, awarded in the last two Research Assessment Exercises.

Sheffield offers a stimulating, friendly and informal study environment. We aim to encourage you to achieve your full potential. You will be taught or supervised by world class academic staff who have published widely and are at the forefront of their fields. Sheffield is a leading centre for the development of electronic resources used in both teaching and research, such as The Proceedings of the Old Bailey, 1674-1913.

We have interdisciplinary research centres such as the Sheffield Centre for the Study of Genocide and Mass Violence and The Centre for Research into Freemasonry; we are also part of the Centre for Nineteenth-Century Studies. The opportunity to acquire vocational experience through our Work Placement module is a unique feature of the Sheffield MA. Examples of recent placements include archive work for a local archaeological consultancy company, exhibition research and design for English Heritage, working with teachers in Sheffield schools, cataloguing small collections in the Sheffield Archives, working in the Humanities Research Institute on the Old Bailey Online project devising a publicity strategy and analysing digitised material, and designing online learning environments for school children studying history.
