Are you interested in doing research on St Albans Abbey?

I have just discovered that if you would like to get an M.A. degree on St Albans Abbey without having to pay any tuition fees you have about two weeks to get in an application. It would be supervised by the University of Hertfordshire and involve working in the Cathedral archives. Projects may cover the following themes:
  1. The heritage, restoration and material culture of the Abbey from the 19th century to the present day;
  2. The Abbey's role in charity, the poor law, and the wider community in the 19th and 20th centuries;
  3. The Cult of Saints in recent history.
