    Programme

    The programme concentrates on the study of slavery and forced labour in a range of different periods and geographies. Historical research that is set to break away from the concentration on a single period or geography has become a rarity in recent decades, and it is the aim of this programme to create an intellectual environment that allows more wide-reaching historical research while maintaining the rigorous standards for which high-quality research is renowned.

    Learning Outcomes

    Students who successfully complete the programme will be able to:

        * engage in historical arguments in relation to slavery and labour studies;
        * analyse independently historical materials of various different natures;
        * develop an appreciation of how the study of a period-overarching topic can widen their historical horizon and research agenda;
        * set their own historical research agenda in relation to slave and forced-labour studies;
        * be able to efficiently access relevant resources and make efficient use of them;
        * prepare and present their own work in a scholarly fashion.

    How You Will Be Taught

    The programme combines seminars that are both teacher- and student-led, written coursework, class presentations and research projects covering a wide chronological and geographical range of slavery and forced-labour studies
