The M.A. History and Society has two clear objectives: It aims to enable postgraduates with a bachelor's degree in history to consolidate their academic knowledge and tackle their own, individual research projects under excellent supervision. The degree programme also covers the fields of digital and public history and enables students to explore potential occupational fields by completing internships. This gives students a wide range of options for specialising within the degree programme. Historical research and science communication are taught and researched in a similarly close connection as in later professional practice, as both fields are becoming increasingly intertwined.
