May I be allowed to correct what could have been a slight misunderstanding. I have been latterly approached by several Gozitan students, expressing their wish to register for the new exciting postgraduate programme leading to the European Masters Degree in Mediterranean Historical Studies.

The Department of History of the University of Malta has always been acutely sensitive to the needs, difficulties and genuine aspirations of Gozitan students. In response to their legitimate desire to have access to postgraduate evening courses like their Maltese counterparts, the department will now be offering this particular course separately in both Malta and Gozo.

Subject to the number of registered candidates, the course will commence in October 2007. May I remind prospective candidates that to be admitted to the course, they should have at least a Bachelor’s degree with Second-Class Honours or Category II in History or in any other related subject.
