Overview

Throughout the Research in Renaissance Studies offered at the University of Warwick you will complete a dissertation of 40,000 words under the direction of academic staff from the Centre’s allied departments (Classics, English, History, History of Art, Liberal Arts and the School of Modern Languages and Cultures). Single or joint supervisions are possible.

Key Facts

You are encouraged to audit the core module of the Taught MA, develop your language skills, and attend the training sessions offered by the Centre, including Latin for Research, Palaeography, and academic writing skills. The starting month is flexible. The MA by Research is an excellent stepping-stone to embarking on a PhD. Nonetheless, most students will find that our taught MA will prepare them more fully to do further research.

As this is a personal research project, the choice of the composition of your supervisory team and the methodology of your research will depend on your chosen topic.

Warwick's Centre for the Study of the Renaissance provides an interdisciplinary research environment where you will complete a research project, choosing from a wide range of specialist areas such as book history, history of science, classical reception, social and religious history, history of visual culture, history of education, and literature and theatre.
