Local History MA | Master's degree | Humanities & Culture | On Campus | 2 years | University of Limerick | Ireland

Reconstructing and making sense of people in their localities over time fulfils a real need for those who identify with or belong to that locality. The professional study of local history is a core area of enquiry for historians, the better to understand larger or national histories. There is a growing awareness for those interested in local history that its pursuit should be to the highest standards, the better to articulate a more accurate and deeper understanding of the past. This programme provides that professional expertise.
