Description
Our course places particular emphasis on progression and is notable for providing the opportunity to carry out research in all years. The first year will give you a grounding in the key skills needed for a history of art degree, studying medieval, early modern, modern and contemporary art history. You will also choose a research-oriented, small-group seminar class.
In the following years, you will choose from a variety of broader thematic lecture- and seminar-based units, as well as further research-oriented units. There is also the option to study abroad in the second year. You will undertake one substantial piece of independent research each year, and write a dissertation in your final year.
A wide range of subject matter is available for study. Current units include:
Arts of War and Peace
Modern Art in Britain
Art, Music and Modernism
Modern German Art
19th-century Realism
Soviet Art and Culture
Medieval Tuscany
Western Sculpture and the Classical Tradition
Into the Baroque: Art in the Aftermath of the Reformation
