Overview

Program description

Because of the nature of the History program at University of Lethbridge, the Thesis forms the central requirement of the program. At the master’s level, a Thesis involves close collaboration between supervisor and student. Consequently, students are required to secure a potential supervisor prior to submitting an application for this program (except for Economics major).

Courses are determined in consultation with the supervisor before the student begins the program. Students are required to take the equivalent of 3 – 6 full-times courses. All History students take the core graduate seminar in Historiography (History 5000), with the remaining courses a mixture of half-semester courses in Cultural, Social, and Political Thought (CSPT); undergraduate seminars elevated to graduate level; and Independent Studies.
