Course content

Develop individual specialisms. You'll gain skills in interpretation, object handling and analysis. Our modules will also help you make connections between the global and the local. This will enable you to respond to the concerns and challenges of the present, such as sustainability, belonging and inequality.

Work directly with collections. You'll study York’s own handling collections. These are housed in a purpose-built store and handling space that is kept to professional conservation standards. Sessions held here will give you hands-on experience of handling, packing, storing and analysing fashion objects.

Explore an exciting range of option modules. You can tailor your degree to match your own academic and professional interests. We offer both fashion-specific and more general option modules, allowing you to gain a comprehensive understanding of the field.

Join a vibrant, interdisciplinary community. We're one of the largest art history departments in the UK. Our expert staff have research interests that span geographical and historical boundaries, from the ancient to the contemporary.
