Capacity for integration and autonomy in research: Students should know how to apply the acquired knowledge and their capacity to solve problems of a historical nature in new or little known environments within broader (or multidisciplinary) contexts related to Ancient and Mediaeval History.
Critical reasoning and capacity for analysis, synthesis and historical interpretation between the Mediterranean and the Atlantic in the Ancient and Mediaeval worlds: Students should be able to integrate knowledge and to face the complexity of formulating opinions from information which, though incomplete or limited, includes reflections on the social and ethical responsibilities related to the application of their knowledge and judgements.
Communication skills: Students should know how to communicate both orally and in writing their conclusions, and the underlying knowledge and rationale supporting them, to a specialised and non-specialised audience in a clear, ordered and unambiguous manner.

Capacity to contribute to European cultural development through the correct transmission and critical interpretation of historical and cultural legacy from the classical and mediaeval world.
Knowledge of the main fields of current research work on the Ancient and Mediaeval Periods.
Motivation for quality and constant improvement to obtain advanced results of excellence in specialised, multidisciplinary and international historical scientific contexts.
Recognition of the diversity and interculturality in the History of Europe of the Mediterranean and Atlantic world.
Capacity for the rational and selective use of new communication technologies (Internet) and teaching innovation in learning, understanding and assimilating the teaching contents (practical and theoretical) of the Master's programme and in obtaining relevant information for research.
