The Modern Humanities Research Association (MHRA) is a British-based international organization that aims to encourage and promote advanced study and research of humanities. It is most notable for producing the MHRA Style Guide.

The MHRA was founded in 1918, as the Modern Language Research Students Association, in Christ’s College, Cambridge. After an early change of name to MHRA in 1918, the unincorporated charity became an incorporated company with the same name on 2 October 1997. Its declared aim is to encourage and promote advanced study and research in the field of the modern humanities, which include the modern and medieval European languages, literatures and cultures.

As well as the MHRA Style Guide, the MHRA publishes six scholarly journals:

• Modern Language Review
• Oxford German Studies
• Austrian Studies
• Portuguese Studies
• The Slavonic and East European Review
• The Yearbook of English Studies

The current President is Professor John Woodhouse.
