The syllabus of the degree, which enlarges education offerings in historical and cultural research, goes deeper into this long period of time. It is a particularly interesting period for Europeʼs configuration and its relationships, internal and with close territories, for instance the complex interaction with Magrib.

 
From September, the masterʼs degree can be completely studied in Barcelona. It will be taught by teaching staff from the four participating universities. Students will be trained in different research fields and methods: source analysis, palaeographic techniques, institutions, historical landscape, environment, cultural transmissions, and thinking and religions, among others. IEMedʼs collaboration contributes to offer a complete training in the interconnection among Mediterranean territories.
