Fordham University

The integrated, interdisciplinary approach of Fordham University's master's degree in medieval studies program is a natural extension of Fordham's Jesuit roots of scholarly research and a commitment to the continuing exploration of this crucial historical period. 

The world-class graduate program in New York City has attracted leading medieval experts and scholars, the highest caliber graduate students from around the world, and the ongoing cross-disciplinary collaboration of professors from other departments of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences (GSAS). 

Medieval studies focuses on the middle ages of European history, an era that spanned roughly 1,000 years from the fall of the Western Roman Empire in the 5th century to the beginning of the Early Modern Period in the 16th century.

The M.A. degree in Medieval Studies curriculum consists of core courses specifically designed for medieval studies as well as cross-disciplinary courses taught by faculty experts from other departments of the GSAS, which include art and music history, classics, English, history, Romance languages and literature (French, German, Italian, and Spanish), philosophy, political science, and theology.
