1 PhD Programs in Historical Research Methodologies 2023

Historical study remains an important part of the modern world. Analyzing the past provides useful guides to follow as well as context for historical events. Historical research methodologies students learn how to assess historical information, organize it and deliver accurate summaries of the information learned.

The PhD (Doctor of Philosophy) is a doctoral or post-graduate degree. PhD holders are not necessarily philosophers (unless they earned their degree in philosophy), and PhD recipients are able to engage in thought experiments, reason about problems, and solve problems in sophisticated ways. To receive a PhD a student must demonstrate original research in their chosen field of study, produce a dissertation on that research, and defend their dissertation in front of other experts.
