Student Internship Programme

Thanks to generous donations from alumni and friends, the Department is able to offer short-term research contracts as part of the Student Internship Programme.  Working closely with faculty, students participate in a range of research activities which allow them to hone their skills whilst contributing to ongoing research projects in the Department.

Recipients of these internships, and our main funder, Breht Feigh (MSc Economic History, 1993), speak about what the programme has meant for them here.

Student Mentorship Scheme

After a successful launch in 2022-23, we are delighted to announce that we will be running this popular scheme for the academic year 2023-24.  Our alumni share a deep wealth of experience and knowledge across a wide range of industries and sectors and we are grateful to those of you who are willing to provide careers guidance and mentorship at both the undergraduate and postgraduate level.

If you would like to get involved, please sign-up here, or contact Oli Harrison for more information.

 

 

A significant focus of the Advisory Board will be to assist in the foundation and ongoing stewardship of the Economic History Research Fund, which will provide grants for research for PhD students in the Department.
