The master’s programme in Colonial and Global History at Leiden University offers the most in-depth and comprehensive programme on the history of colonialism and globalisation currently available in Europe. You will join a master in which you will explore the mutual interaction between the global and the local: between globalisation and regional processes of identity- and state-formation. In a highly stimulating and international academic environment, you will participate in the latest debates in the field of colonial and global history and you will contribute yourself to the progress of that field by investigating unexplored primary sources. While the programme highlights the global connections and entanglements made by conquest, trade and migration, you will gain a comparative understanding of European imperialism and its impact on Asia, Africa and South America. 
During your studies you will have access to unique documentation centres and libraries specialising in Asia and Africa within easy reach of Leiden University – at the National Archives and the Royal Library in The Hague.

Tika Ramadhini - Student Testimonial Colonial and Global History Leiden University

I have always been interested to study history with a global perspective. This programme in Colonial and Global History offers the possibility to explore the connective history between different regions and cultures.

I learned how to make use of different kinds of historical sources from the rich collections of Leiden University's library and the National Archives of the Netherlands.

New experience and insights
This programme helped me to advance my research skills and critical thinking...

Working alongside my fellow students with international backgrounds provides me new experience and insights in developing my works. I really like the design of the programme which encompasses many different topics and regions, allowing me to focus on my specialisation yet still presents the possibility to interact with other kinds of topics in the courses.

Muslim women leadership
During my last semester, I did an internship at Koninklijke Instituut van Taal Land en Volkenkunde (KITLV) and got involved in research about Muslim women leadership in Southeast Asia. I believe the research skills and connections that I have built in Leiden will help me to pursue my academic career in Indonesia.

Tom Quist - Student Testimonial Colonial and Global History Leiden University

During my Bachelor's in Leiden I already focused on pre-modern Dutch History. One year before graduating I started an internship at the National Maritime Museum in Amsterdam, where I developed an interest in the Dutch maritime past of the 17th and 18th centuries. This fascination persuaded me to opt for the specialisation in Colonial and Global History, and choose the track in Maritime History.

Deciding your own research themes
The possibility to focus on your favourite topic(s) is definitely one of the best features of the programme...

My plans for the future aren't fully shaped yet, but I would certainly grab any opportunity to continue exploring the Dutch East Indies after graduating.
