Program details

Overview

Arts, Media and Society, a specialisation within the Art History bachelor's, studies how visual art connects with contemporary society, a link strengthened by social and other media, and analyses how that relationship both reflects and shapes present-day issues, alongside building practical and academic skills relevant to the job market. Students examine a range of art forms and media, including digital media art, bio-art, installation art, and film and photography, within a small-scale programme taught by staff linked to the LUCAS arts research institute and visiting lecturers.
