Course content

Our Graduate Diploma is specifically designed for students whose background may not be in art history, but who wish to study the subject at postgraduate level.

The Graduate Diploma provides an ideal bridge to further postgraduate study and is designed to prepare students for the MA, providing a strong foundation in history of art as a discipline. When the opportunity arises seminars will be taken out of the classroom and artworks will be studied in situ. The independent research project will enable you to work closely with your supervisor on a one-to-one basis to research and write on a topic of your choice.

Skills from this degree

  • The ability to exercise initiative and personal responsibility, to take decisions in complex and unpredictable situations, and to learn independently

  • Demonstrate self-direction and originality in tackling and solving problems, and act autonomously in planning and implementing tasks at a professional or equivalent level
  • Continue to advance knowledge and understanding, and to develop new skills to a high level
