Why study Renaissance and Early Modern Studies at York

Humanities hub
Our Humanities Research Centre provides a vibrant hub for interdisciplinary research and postgraduate life.
Unrivalled resources on your doorstep
You'll have access to the largest cathedral library in the UK, and the largest records office outside London.
As a postgraduate student on an interdisciplinary programme, my work gives me the chance to build connections across different subjects. This is particularly useful in the world of work when issues are often not isolated in one academic field.
