History of Art with Curating (BA)

Birkbeck's BA History of Art with Curating will explore the social and historical contexts in which visual art has been produced, and write confidently and analytically about texts and images. At the same time, students will be introduced to current curatorial approaches and debates, and given opportunities to put your knowledge and ideas into practice in a supportive and collaborative environment. Students will have opportunities to explore different types of visual culture in more detail. Studying at Birkbeck, students are based in the heart of London, close to museums and galleries, while being part of a vibrant and stimulating student community. Graduates can pursue jobs in arts management, conservation and policy; in education, marketing and publishing; in the museums and heritage sectors; and in research and academia.
