Overview

Art History with Curating from Birkbeck, University of London will give you the opportunity to develop a range of key skills, from critical thinking and writing, to historical research and visual analysis.

Quick Facts:

Our modules make creative use of the art galleries, museums and other facilities in London and beyond, including a study trip abroad in spring.
We teach art history as a rich and dynamic topic, encompassing exhibitions, installation, print culture and digital media as well as painting, sculpture and photography. You will be taught by skilled and experienced teachers who have curated exhibitions in diverse settings and are published writers of ground-breaking art history in periods from medieval to contemporary.

Our evening teaching allows you to combine studying with work or taking up volunteering opportunities during the day.
This course will also support you in making the first steps towards working in the arts and you will be part of a diverse, vibrant and stimulating student community in central London.

If you opt for the Foundation Year route, this will fully prepare you for undergraduate study. It is ideal if you are returning to study after a gap, or if you have not previously studied the relevant subjects, or if you didn't achieve the grades you need for a place on your chosen undergraduate degree.
