Program details

Overview

The De la Renaissance aux révolutions track of the Master in History trains students by and for research on the early modern world, from the Renaissance to the revolutions at the turn of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. It suits students aiming at a doctorate in early modern history and those preparing for teaching competitions, notably the agrégation d'histoire. It also prepares students for careers in heritage, publishing, culture and the communication of research. In Master 1, students take methodology units in palaeography, historiography and quantitative methods, a thematic unit on elites, interactions and economies in early modern times, a professionalisation unit on the uses of history, and a research methodology workshop. In the second semester, students write a research dissertation (15 ECTS), follow a research presentation (5 ECTS) and complete an internship (3 ECTS).
