Study History of Art Abroad Semester I and Semester II both involve studying history of art (and possibly other complementary subjects) at a university abroad. Both modules aim to deepen students' understanding of the history of art and its cultural contexts through studying in an institutional and cultural context outside the UK. An extra year of study will allow students to develop more advanced art-historical skills, and also provide opportunities for studying complementary subjects if they choose. Some students will take the opportunity to study in a non-English speaking programme, which will improve their linguistic competency. All students who study abroad will improve their intercultural competence.
By the end of the module, it is expected that all students will demonstrate:
