The Department of History provides Master of Arts degree options (thesis or non-thesis) in History. Depending on faculty availability, students may complete their studies in either English or French.
Graduate students conduct research across various fields aligned with faculty specializations. The master's program features an optional co-op component.
The Department collaborates with Women's Studies and Medieval and Renaissance Studies programs at the graduate level, enabling specialization in these interdisciplinary fields. Additional information is available in the "Admission Requirements" section for the master's program.
The joint master's in Medieval and Renaissance Studies (MDV) has dual objectives:
Delivering advanced interdisciplinary education in Medieval and Renaissance Studies;
Teaching period-specific research methodologies and theoretical frameworks.
This specialization allows students to enhance their primary studies with interdisciplinary coursework focused on medieval and Renaissance periods. Program requirements include either a thesis or major research paper on relevant topics, plus two core MDV courses (one counting toward the primary discipline's requirements).
