Postgraduate research in Art History and Visual Culture
You will have the opportunity to study a topic which incorporates a number of established subject areas, including art history and cultural studies.
Supported by colleagues from across the Humanities disciplines with research interests in Visual Culture, we offer PhD supervision on a range of topics:
from the old masters to contemporary practitioners
from the traditional arts to new media and technologies
and from elite production to popular culture.
You will also be able to conduct cross-disciplinary research in collaboration with other relevant fields of study.
This programme will particularly appeal to you if you have a background or interest in
the history of art
cinema
cultural history
philosophy
sociology
visual culture.
Students applying to enter directly into the MPhil/PhD programme would normally be expected to have a Masters degree with Merit or equivalent in a related subject, or other relevant qualifications such as a doctorate in another subject.
