Profile
The aim of the Master’s Programme “Global History” at the University of Bayreuth is to enable students to recognize and analyse complex social, political, cultural and economic phenomena of the present in their global and historical contexts.In addition to a general introduction to the theories and methods of global history, you will learn how to analyse complex transnational phenomena, and how to re-evaluate them historically. You will be able to specialise in one of three world regions and expand your language skills accordingly: You can choose between Africa, Europe or the Atlantic World and the Americas; but you may also choose transnational/-regional history. Our Programme consists of four main pillars: Foundations, Area Expertise and Language Courses, and Specialisation. The fourth pillar consists of a Masterclass and your Master’s thesis – with a topic of your own choice.The successful completion of your Master’s degree opens up a wide range of occupational fields. You will be able to pursue a career in academia, to support international NGOs, or to join research institutions and associations. In addition, your cultural knowledge and skills will be in demand in policy consulting and internationally operating companies. Global historical questions are also becoming increasingly important in museum and exhibition work, as well as in journalism. The Master’s Programme Global History at the University of Bayreuth will, of course, also enable you to do a doctorate as it is above all committed to the education of qualified future historians.
