公共历史 Public History

The MA in Public History at Queen's University Belfast explores how historical knowledge is produced, mediated, represented and consumed in public spaces, in a region where the past continues to resonate powerfully. The programme combines academic training in historical theory and research methods with specialised topics relating to history in the public sphere, such as negotiating contested pasts, oral history, heritage and tourism, and digital curation. A unique 30-day internship placement with a public history site provides in-depth sector and career development experience. Partners include the Ulster Museum, Titanic Belfast, BBC, the National Trust and the Public Record Office of Northern Ireland.
