The History PhD program, directly connected to the Jaume Vicens i Vives University Institute of History, has now existed for 25 years. During this time, the Pompeu Fabra University, which does not offer a Bachelor's Degree in History, has focused in training postgraduate students,who mainly come from other universities, both from Spain and from abroad. The specific role of this PhD in this context is to train highly qualified researchers in the history and archaeological research field, following research areas related to World History or Global History.
