Stirling Campus

Content

The MRes is designed to: enable you to become a well-trained historian; and, demonstrate your ability to undertake research to doctoral level at Stirling or other universities in Britain and overseas.

Both of these aims are achieved through the completion of independent study modules, field seminars and skills training conducted under supervision. You’ll also be allocated an individual supervisor to direct your independent study and plan the curriculum to reflect your interests and needs.

You can exit after stage 1 with a PgCert Historical Research.
