Master of Arts in Public History and Heritage

Program Overview

Our specialised MA in Public History and Heritage draws on the research expertise of the Manchester Centre for Public Histories and Heritage, providing students with access to archives, historians and networks far beyond just those in the University. The course trains students in the specifics of public history and heritage and is suitable for those considering a career in heritage management or associated fields, such as libraries and archives, tourism or local government, or wishing to progress onto higher research programmes. The course offers a range of core and optional modules that draw on the strengths of our research-active staff. The skills gained are also transferable to a range of careers – students develop key skills including: working with evidence, writing heritage reports, developing analysis, presenting research, and hands-on experience (through placement) of the heritage, archive and museums sector.

Alongside your studies, you will undertake a placement related to your research interests, organised in collaboration with staff members, and drawn from our extensive network of regional contacts. Previous placements have included National Trust properties, the People's History Museum, and the National Football Museum (Manchester).
