I’m doing the [url=http://www3.open.ac.uk/study/postgraduate/qualification/f28.htm]MA in history at the OU[/url]. The first course lasts about 18 months and takes you through various themes of 19th century local British & Irish history. It ends with an assignment where you propose a project for the second part of the masters. I submitted mine today. Unlike the other assignments this had to be printed and so I handed it in on campus. This is my proof of receipt.
Assuming it’s a pass, the project will start in May time.
