Overview

The programme aims to promote an open, discursive, research-based approach to learning in Philosophies of Art in order to support your individual professional development and prepare you for advanced research or professional practice. The core module in Aesthetics consists mainly of courses that promote critical understanding of theories, contextual issues and debates in a specialist area of art. The Classics specialisation is a combination of lectures and seminars with individual tutorials and the opportunity for on-the-job training in archives and museums. It also includes field trips to relevant historical sites. The curriculum will develop your research skills and theoretical, historical knowledge in both contemporary and classical art-related fields. During their training, students of the programme can acquire highly developed critical, evaluative, reflective and communication skills. To achieve this, the curriculum uses research and writing to develop modes of questioning, speculative thinking and critical evaluation.
