Course summary

On this Master of Research (MRes), you'll be supported to build a bespoke programme of advanced research and study to match your personal and professional interests - you can learn a language, explore palaeography, broaden your field of study, or complete a work placement. The History pathway showcases a wide and exciting range of studies across time and place, from medieval to modern, from local to global. Why study this course?

  • Choose from our range of Humanities MRes courses and specialise in your subject of interest, tailoring your degree around your research and career plans as you benefit from one-to-one expert supervision
  • High staff-to-student ratio enhanced by small-group tutorials and a strong, inclusive research community with discipline-specific research training provided throughout the course
  • Opportunity to undertake a work placement – past students have gone into local schools, the National Trust, and Staffordshire and Stoke Archive Service
  • Keele is a member of the North West Consortium Doctoral Training Partnership (NWCDTP) and the North West Social Science Doctoral Training Partnership (NWSSDTP)
Highly flexible and with a focus on one-to-one supervision throughout the course, you can tailor this MRes around your research and career plans. You’ll graduate with knowledge of research design, methods and processes, together with the creative, critical, reflexive, and analytical mindset that employers desire. The MRes can also be used as a stepping-stone to further research at PhD level. From the outset, you will be paired with an experienced supervisor to support your personal and professional development, working together to advance your research interests and develop your individual research, writing and communications skills.
