BA Philosophy and Art History ,with Placement Year

About

You study the disciplines of philosophy and art history together in order to appreciate the relationships between the two disciplines with a degree of critical awareness. In so doing you are offered a unique approach to develop skills which are now vital in a society dominated by the visual image and visual forms of communication.

You will be taught by our expert staff in your very first year, a rarity in UK art history courses.
