About this course

What will I learn?

Our MPhil/PhD programme in the School of Social Sciences offers the opportunity to study with world-leading academics, researching issues related to health and illness. This course explores the concepts and methods of history, literature and the visual arts to the analysis of health and healthcare. Disability history is a particular area of expertise, with an oral history of people affected by the drug, thalidomide, currently underway. Students are exploring a variety of areas within these fields ranging from narratives of childbirth to images of disability in the post-war English language literature of Wales.
