About

The Department of European Art History at Heidelberg University and the Ecole du Louvre in Paris, the most prestigious institution of higher education for Art History in France, offer a bi-national, integrated International Master of Art History and Museology (IMKM). The four-semester Master's programme combines the complementary competences of both internationally renowned institutions. The first two semesters will be spent in Paris, where the focus of study lies on the museology programme (history of collecting and collections, principles of conservation and restoration, art education and administration of cultural heritage etc.), the Ecole du Louvre has been offering very successfully for many years. At the Louvre and other museums in Paris, students will have the opportunity to study, analyse and discuss works of art and their mode of presentation in situ. A written dissertation of about 50 pages on an art historical or museological topic will complete the curriculum in Paris. The following two semesters in Heidelberg aim to familiarise the students with the methodological bases of academic research, while deepening their analytical-critical abilities. Students will write their final thesis at Heidelberg University with the aid of the university library's outstanding collection and holdings. Graduates of this MA course can apply for admission to a bi-national doctoral programme carried out by the Ecole du Louvre and Heidelberg University.
