Course Description
This programme aims to give you an opportunity both to develop an advanced academic approach and to gain practical and transferable skills within the study of the decorative arts. There is a strong emphasis on object-based research in addition to critical and theoretical analysis. The curriculum is structured around a spine of core teaching which aims to develop research skills, provided in conjunction with the Faculty of Arts and including specific subject-related methods and techniques. The programme offers opportunities for individual research, design history participation in a student-organised exhibition and access to work placements in museums, auction houses and cultural institutions. Field work includes a week-long study trip. Other courses offered by the faculty are available as part of the degree and include advanced IT courses taught by the Humanities Advanced Technology & Information Institute. The whole degree may be structured to reflect your individual interests, culminating in the dissertation, which is written on a subject selected by you in consultation with a tutor. The programme is intended both for those seeking employment in the art world and for those wishing to pursue further research. The University, civic and national collections make Glasgow a particularly well-endowed centre for the study of art and design history at postgraduate level.
