The Institute for Medieval Studies

We are one of the major centres for Medieval Studies in the UK and recently celebrated our 50th anniversary. We offer interdisciplinary teaching at postgraduate level with both masters and PhD courses. We also offer discovery modules for undergraduate students with an interest in the medieval period.

We are part of the School of History and we are a multidisciplinary Institute with academic staff from a range of subject areas across the Faculty of Arts, Humanities and Cultures.

Masters

Our Masters courses provide an opportunity to gain specialist skills in medieval Latin and palaeography, whilst also focusing on interdisciplinary topics of your choice.

Our research

We benefit from expertise from a wide range of arts and humanities subject areas and work on collaborative projects to gain a deeper knowledge and understanding of the medieval period and explore key themes. We work closely with local and regional museums and government organisations to ensure that our research has an impact in the wider academic community.
