The interdisciplinary Master's degree program “History of Global Markets” is offered by the Institute for Economic and Social History, University of Göttingen. This degree program imparts the analytical skills of economic and social history and combines them with building a profile either in economics, business studies, or the social sciences and history. It offers a broad range of possibilities to specialize in different fields, since the University of Göttingen provides a large variety of courses. Our focus is on the global economy, business history, and the history of consumption.
