These facilities include the Djanogly Art Gallery (on campus) which hosts acclaimed exhibitions and the Digital Humanities Centre with its wide range of scanners and projectors.

Course details

Modules

In year one, the Learning History and Introduction to Art History modules help students to reflect on the nature of the disciplines, enhance various intellectual and practical skills (including team work), engage with methodologies, and introduce key issues and debates. In year two, students pick from a selection of art history options ranging from the Renaissance to the present day, to examine not only traditional fine art such as painting, sculpture, architecture, and the graphic arts, but also photography, performance, film and video. In history, students take a core module on The Contemporary World since 1945, plus further optional modules. In year three, you’ll take a special subject, based heavily on primary sources, and you’ll research and produce a dissertation in art history.
