- Description/content
- The international Master's programme in History aims to extend the knowledge and skills in history of graduate students mainly from Germany and France or French-speaking countries. Special emphasis lies on specific theoretical and methodological approaches of academic research in history in Germany and France. The fields of study comprise all central epochs of European and global history.
One central feature of the programme is the explicit intercultural dimension: German- and French-speaking participants complete the programme side by side. By working in pairs, they can assist each other with language problems as well as in practical matters.
The Master's programme is built upon the binational Bachelor's programme in History, which is jointly organised by Bielefeld University and Université Paris Cité, but applicants holding a BA degree in history from other universities can also participate in the programme.
