Overview
Working with preeminent historians in the field, you will analyse large-scale historical processes, pursue empirical research and produce your own comparative and cross-cultural histories.
The further development of the study of international history in this broad sense depends on the internationalisation of the training and skills of the next generation of experts. This International and World History programme at Columbia University and London School of Economics and Political Science draws on the faculties of two of the world's leading centres of international affairs, which have the expertise and commitment to provide the training and skills needed. It offers close contact in seminars and colloquia with mentors in different intellectual and cultural settings in two global cities. You will spend the first year at Columbia University, New York, and the second year at LSE in London.
Careers
While many dual degree students go on to undertake PhDs, some choose to apply the insights gained to a career outside of academia, including journalism, public policy, non-profit, or the private sector.
Programme Structure
Course Overview:
- At the heart of the programme is the two-year dissertation, a piece of original scholarly work based on detailed empirical research and analysis.
- The dissertation is supported by a sequence of three compulsory courses taken at Columbia and LSE, as well as a large range of electives that allow for specialisation. Rigorous language study is also an important component of the curriculum as it enables projects that are international in nature.
