Staff in the History Subject participate in interdisciplinary Research Centres. These bring together staff from the School with colleagues from related Subjects, including English Literature, Scottish Literature and Celtic. Research Centres sponsor seminar series, conferences and grant-funded research projects. Some offer specialised taught Masters degrees while others provide optional courses for the MLitt/MSc in History.
