Graduates of a degree course in History or a degree recognised as related.
Annotation
The course is heavily designed towards project work, knowledge transfer and history. The focus is therefore not only on historical research itself, but also on the preparation of research results for the professional and non-specialist public. Classic epoch focuses are possible from ancient history to contemporary history, but also thematic focal points of one's own interest. After graduation, our graduates work predominantly in science, in museums, collections and archives, in history education, in public relations, in journalism or in corporate communication.
