The Research Masters’s specialisation in Medieval and Early Modern European History focuses on the momentous cultural and political transformations that characterised the period between 1300-1700. The course allows you to specialise in the history of the Low Countries, which in this period was one of Europe’s major commercial, cultural and political hubs. Yet you can also explore the history of other parts of Europe, especially the Habsburg world.
Research/PhD
Anyone with a master’s degree can, in principle, apply for a PhD track. The procedure for admission to the PhD track is conducted by means of job applications. Students with a particular interest in an academic career are advised to opt for a research master’s programme, since these programmes explicitly prepare students for research at PhD level.
Information about application and programmes can be found at the Leiden Humanities Gradute School website.
