The programme will provide you with the generic social science and history-specific research training necessary to go on to doctoral research or to pursue a career as professional researchers. It includes modules on the philosophy of the social sciences, quantitative and qualitative techniques, modes of historical explanation, in the theory and practice of history and a module on a substantive area of economic and social history taught by one of Exeter’s seven economic and social historians. These taught modules inform the dissertation on a topic in economic and social history.
The MRes degree is recognised by the UK Economic and Social History Research Council as part of a ‘1+3’ programme.
