Overview

At University of East Anglia you’ll be taught by internationally recognised scholars. Focusing on the years between 900 and 1500, they’ll help you to understand the political, ecclesiastical, social and cultural history of medieval England and Western Europe.

You’ll explore Medieval History through seminars and tutorials, which will also equip you with the skills to access medieval manuscript sources. Then you’ll put your skills into practice as you pursue your own historical research in a dissertation.

Norwich is an ideal city in which to study medieval history. Not only does it retain many medieval buildings, but our historians have access to Norfolk Record Office’s vast collection of medieval documents, as well as to the cutting-edge archaeological and heritage work of Norwich Castle Museum.

Our MA will open all kinds of paths for you. Graduates come from across the world to study with us. Many have gone on to undertake doctoral study, and this could be your first step towards becoming a professional historian. The skills you’ll learn will serve you equally well in careers as diverse as heritage and tourism, teaching, law, and many other professions.
