Find out where your degree can take you.

The MSc will provide you with the knowledge and skills essential to pursue doctoral research in ancient history or a related field (whether at Edinburgh or elsewhere).

The transferable skills you will acquire will be invaluable for a range of related careers, including museum work, cultural heritage and conservation, library or archive work, as well as for careers outside the field. You’ll also develop the skills and confidence to pursue a career outside of the field.
