Canterbury is the closest British university city to mainland Europe, and the proximity to the channel ports and Ashford international station means students can arrive in France in just a couple of hours; there are many French-speaking students on campus, so students get a better chance to immerse themselves in the language than at any other university in the country; alongside the traditional academic modules in history and philosophy of art, the course provides all students with the opportunity for practice based learning about the visual arts, by taking photographs, writing criticism or curating an exhibition, and also to contribute to a growing print collection, where undergraduates collect art on behalf of the department.
