MA/MS in Arts & Culture

The Arts and Culture master's offers a choice between the Art History and Museum Studies specialisations, each one exploring its themes from a comparative and global perspective with a broad range of electives for further customisation. The one-year programme provides a thorough footing in the history, methods and theories that underpin art history and museology while engaging with contemporary museum practice, with particular attention paid to objects and their agency, critical theory, world art studies, and both museum studies and collection studies. Possible paths run from the late medieval and early modern period through to present-day art and the era of digital culture, as well as the cultures of collecting and museums across past and present, supported by opportunities for internships, exchange programmes and visiting speakers.
