The Master of Research in Humanities provides a tailored, individualized master's program within an organized, cross-disciplinary research setting. You'll conduct an in-depth research project with a curriculum collaboratively designed by you and your supervisor(s).

It spans diverse fields within the Faculty of Arts and Humanities, covering areas such as Communications, Media, and Culture; English literature; Film and cinema; History; Law; Linguistics; Philosophy; Politics; Religion; and Scottish literature.

This one-year, research-focused program pairs you with one or more supervisors to craft a study plan aligned with your academic goals.

Beyond self-directed study, you'll access various learning resources to support your research, including specialized courses that equip you with the skills necessary to excel in your project.
