This master's programme trains researchers and specialists able to situate contemporary societies within historical perspective, and is offered by UQAR through an agreement with UQAM. It totals 45 credits: 12 credits of coursework and a 33-credit thesis, reflecting its strong research orientation.

Programme length is flexible and depends on the pace of thesis completion rather than a fixed number of trimesters. Courses are generally offered in person during the week, both daytime and evening.
