Keen to develop in-depth knowledge of the theories, methods and techniques of your research field, connecting them with other disciplines? Curious to find out how your research relates to societal issues?
The Humanities Research Master’s is a unique programme that provides extensive training in research design, in an inspiring and sustainable interdisciplinary research environment. The programme offers excellent preparation for an internationally oriented academic career or for other research-related positions.
Depending on your own area of interest, you’ll choose from five tracks:
* Critical Studies in Art and Culture
* Global History
* Literature & Contested Spaces
* Linguistics (two specialisations: Human Language Technology and Forensic Linguistics)
* Philosophy
Are you looking for in-depth discussions of current issues in epistemology and moral and political philosophy, as well as their historical roots? Do you want to hone your research skills for a possible future PhD? Are you ready to apply historically informed analysis of the foundations of knowledge and morality to topical issues like the nature of fake news and conspiracy theories, climate scepticism, the relationship between freedom and equality, individual responsibility for collective outcomes, and the morality of markets?
The Philosophy track prepares you for a career as a researcher in philosophy. It focuses on central questions concerning human knowledge and morality, and allows you to specialise in different areas. Key features of the programme include the combination of historical and contemporary perspectives; the programme’s connection to the department’s internationally renowned research projects; a strong focus on research skills and preparation for an academic career; an international opportunity to spend a semester abroad; and the fact that the programme is embedded in a humanities research and education environment.

This new interdisciplinary research master track focuses on the entanglements of nature and culture. In our international and interdisciplinary classroom, we interrelate perspectives from within and outside the Humanities to understand and responsibly inhabit the more-than-human world. The Environmental Humanities track is open to talented students from the Humanities as well as from related fields, who are looking for ways to analyze ecological questions in their full historical and cultural complexity. If questions of climate change, species extinction, pollution, or the exploitation of natural resources have in the past mainly been analyzed from the perspective of the Natural Sciences, it is becoming more and more clear that humans and their cultural, economic and political systems play a major role in these issues. The Humanities are therefore vital in making sense of these complex problems.

In the Global History track, you’ll learn to investigate the dynamics and long-term developments of the global interconnection of goods, ideas and people, and the role of power and religion. You’ll collaborate with renowned researchers and research groups in the fields of migration studies, history of capitalism, knowledge and religion, material culture and heritage, emotions and senses, and environmental humanities. The programme has an interdisciplinary perspective that includes concepts and methodologies from the social sciences, philosophy and law. It also offers you the opportunity to develop skills in digital analysis and reflect on the possibilities of emerging digital humanities techniques and e-Humanities approaches.
The track focuses on the study of politics, culture, religion, economy and daily life from a historical, theoretical and 'new' world history perspective. In a globalised and digital world, long-term perspectives are needed to analyse the complex phenomena of our time: perspectives sensitive to deep-rooted mechanisms of inclusion and exclusion. Disciplinary boundaries need to be questioned and challenged, and new methods explored. In order to rise to these challenges, we need researchers who are trained in finding and interpreting compelling source material, in critical reflection, and in detailed reporting. This track will give you these skills.

The Critical Studies in Art and Culture track focuses on current developments within four main disciplines – visual arts, architecture, design and media – from both a theoretical and a historical perspective. In a globalised cultural world in which art, architecture, design and media are ever more closely integrated, disciplinary boundaries are called into question and challenged. But a thorough grounding in older and newer disciplines such as art history, architectural history, design culture and media studies is a prerequisite for asking these questions.
You’ll focus on the analysis of visual objects: artefacts in various media that function as images. This ranges from landscapes, cities and buildings to artworks in various media, as well as film, television, design and games. Notions such as inter-, cross- and transmediality play an important role. Since artefacts, media and forms of intermediality can only exist in specific social, institutional, economical and ideological contexts and networks, Critical Studies in Art and Culture will equip you with the analytical and critical tools necessary for analysing these. Each of the four main disciplines bring specific theories and methods to the table, and the programme seeks to highlight their interconnectedness, with reference to their specific potential as well as their possible limitations.

The Linguistics track trains you as a professional linguistic researcher, specialised in either Human Language Technology or Forensic Linguistics.
Human Language Technology is a young and rapidly evolving research field that holds a unique position between linguistics and computer science. Nowadays, a firm background in language technology and the ability to process large data sets are extremely valuable tools in linguistic research. As a student of this track, you’ll get acquainted with the essential large computational linguistic resources, learn programming in Python for linguistics, and develop skills in Natural Language Programming and machine learning. Through this intensive research programme, you’ll become a true professional in human language technology.
Forensic Linguistics is a new and exciting field. It’s about the use of linguistic evidence in the courtroom. But it also refers to all areas of overlap between language and the law, including the language used in legal or quasi-legal settings by players. As a graduate of this track, you’ll have the theoretical background and practical casework experience to be able to analyse disputed texts, recognise a 'language crime', and identify participants in the police station or courtroom who are at a linguistic disadvantage, and therefore vulnerable to miscarriages of justice.
