Visual Culture

Summary

Looking across time and place, this interdisciplinary MA in Visual Culture offers you the opportunity to develop your knowledge of visual culture and arts and your understanding of how we perceive and interact with objects and images around us. 

By studying examples such as fine art, film, photography, architecture as well as scientific imaging practices, you will be able to explore the uniqueness of objects, images and events, understand how to appreciate them and consider how other people may respond to them in the context of the working practices found in cultural institutions including museums, galleries and heritage organisations.

The course is delivered over one year full-time and two years part-time through a mixture of lectures, interactive seminars, skills development workshops and field trips. It consists of core and optional modules and a dissertation which will cover both theory and practice in visual culture.

Your learning will benefit hugely from the University’s strengths in the subject, including the Centre for Visual Arts and Cultures, which hosts a wide range of events and brings together researchers across departments and faculties. You will also have access to University institutions such as the Oriental Museum and Palace Green Library. 

This course has been created to prepare you to be able to continue your studies in visual culture at a higher level with a view to pursuing a research career in academia but it will also provide you with a qualification which will act as a springboard to a career in the vibrant and fascinating cultural sector.
