Art History (Combined)

University of St Andrews

Content

The MA (Honours) in Art History is a four-year course run by the School of Art History. In your first two years, you will have the opportunity to study a broad chronological span of art from the medieval period to the present day.

Art History is a well-rounded discipline that brings together aspects of social and political history, language and literature, philosophy, aesthetics and psychology. Breadth of knowledge and perspective are encouraged and, for this reason, you will be required to study an additional two subjects alongside art history in the first year of your studies. In the second year you will usually continue with at least one of these subjects, sometimes two.
