Overview

Key Facts

The M.A. History program at University of Connecticut is broadly concerned with skills development (written and oral) and advanced learning, rather than with pre-professional training for academic scholars. While the master’s program does prepare students for entry into the doctoral program, it is equally aimed at enhancing the skills and historical perspective of teachers, lawyers, journalists, museum professionals, editors, and others in both the public and private sectors.

The MA program offers two tracks. Students choosing Plan A will complete 21 credits of coursework and write a thesis. Students choosing Plan B will complete 30 credits of course work and complete a written and oral final examination.
