Overview

In your first year, you are given a firm foundation in some of the aesthetic, interpretative and methodological approaches to the discipline of art history. Throughout your second and third years, there are opportunities for you to develop and expand your engagement with the discipline through a range of specialist modules.

As well as options that explore Renaissance and Baroque art, modernism, contemporary art, French painting, surrealism, photography and aesthetics, this programme also offers an introduction to work-related skills directly relevant to employment in the visual arts sector, such as visual arts writing and exhibition curation.

The Classical & Archaeological Studies element of your degree offers a hugely interesting and varied range of subjects including: literature, mythology, drama, archaeology, architecture, art, languages and philosophy, and looks at the way they all connect in the study of ancient civilisations.
