The MA History and Intensive Language program at SOAS stands out as one of the few UK postgraduate degrees specializing in the histories of Asia, Africa, and the Middle East. Leveraging the institution's deep regional knowledge, the program delivers an unmatched variety of courses exploring both individual and interconnected historical narratives of these areas. Beyond regional and global/transnational studies, the curriculum provides comprehensive instruction in historical research methodologies and historiographical theory.
Although welcoming students from diverse academic backgrounds, the program particularly suits candidates with an undergraduate history degree (or related field), some familiarity with foreign languages (especially Asian or African tongues), and preferably regional knowledge relevant to their chosen specialization.
