Overview
It is designed to prepare students to embark on further study at the doctoral level, as well as for careers in teaching, the heritage sector, and the civil service, amongst many other fields.
Research students in Classical Studies at University of Lincoln can benefit from a broad range of expertise offered by our Classical Studies staff, across both local and global contexts, including in Lincoln itself, Britain, Iberia, the Mediterranean world, and the ancient Near East.
How You Study
The core of the programme is a thesis project, for which you will submit a proposal at the application stage and identify two supervisors. Due to the nature of postgraduate research, a significant amount of time will be spent in independent study. Full-time students currently meet with their academic supervisors once a month and part-time students every other month.
You can expect to be guided throughout your thesis by expert and well-published supervisors, from whom you will receive feedback and advice. Your MA by Research project might cross disciplinary boundaries and focus on multiple subject areas and in such cases, we will endeavour to support you through the allocation of supervisors in relevant fields.
