Master of Arts - History

The Master of Arts in History program consists of course work, a Major Research Paper, and a presentation of research at the annual Graduate Student Conference. It is offered as both a one-year full-time program and on a flex-time basis. Nipissing University's program centres on the following fields: International, Gender, Canadian, European, and Environmental history. The dynamic and award-winning faculty has expertise in areas that include environmental history, the history of genocide, indigenous studies and community history, foreign relations and politics, and military history and the history of espionage.​

The History department cultivates a collaborative and supportive environment where students have the opportunity to work in a meaningful capacity alongside faculty members as a teaching or research assistant. Promoting a strong community is also important to the department. The department’s History Society organizes a range of social and academic activities that brings together undergraduate and graduate students with faculty, and the department regularly hosts a seminar series to share research among university faculty and students.
