Leah Wade, MSc Genealogical, Palaeographic & Heraldic Studies
I made the decision to really give psychology a proper ‘go’ when I accepted my offer to the MSc at Strathclyde. Taking the leap of faith to challenge myself with a degree dedicated to research was a big step for me, and showed me how much I loved challenging myself to better understand the human experience through research.
Nicola Johnson, MSc Genealogical, Palaeographic & Heraldic Studies
Through the course I developed skills in genealogical research, DNA analysis, palaeography, and archival work, as well as expertise across all the major online genealogy platforms. I also gained a much stronger understanding of how to locate, assess, and use different sources effectively. My abilities are now far beyond what they were before I started at Strathclyde.
Kathleen Dickson, MSc Genealogical, Palaeographic & Heraldic Studies
My studies at the University of Strathclyde have been transformational. My tutors were invaluable for my learning experience. The online format enabled me, in Canada, to attend and complete this programme. I will carry the knowledge and expertise I have gained for genealogical research throughout my lifetime.
