The School of Liberal Studies (SLS) offers a range of interdisciplinary and overlapping programmes that support, encourage and redefine liberal arts education through cutting-edge interdisciplinary courses, interactive pedagogy and learning that goes beyond classroom spaces. The MA History programme is designed to impart understanding of historical phenomena and processes as well as to transmit skills of historical analysis and encourage the historical imagination.
The programme teaches students to inquire historically while making use of insights and interpretive techniques of other disciplines, and it seeks to encourage a spirit of critical thinking about contemporary social questions. Skills acquired through the programme shall serve programme graduates well not only in academic but in such careers as journalism, publishing, educational administration, museum/archive management, tourism/heritage management and government service (among others).

Elective History courses are grouped in two broad categories: South Asian History and Comparative History. Courses in the former are unified with respect to their geographical dimension-areas and regions within or across the Indian subcontinentand address various themes. Courses in the latter are designed to acquaint students with the eclectic nature of historical research while encouraging them to reflect upon connections between 'Indian History' and ‘other’ fields of history.
Students must complete at least eight credits and as many as 32 credits of elective courses in each of these two categories. MA History students are encouraged but not required to complete up to eight credits of non-History courses, whether in the School of Liberal Studies or from postgraduate programmes of other Schools of the University.
