It's the same modules for both degrees.

MA or MSc in Sociology for PhD in History
S

Hi all,

I am currently doing part-time PG course in Social Research and have the option to graduate with either an MA or MSc. Since I’m considering moving on to a PhD in History I would appreciate some advice on whether to go for the MA or the MSc. My guess is that the MSc would better demonstrate my research skills while the MA might better qualify for a PhD in the Humanities?

Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you.
