Course Overview
You will undertake specialist research training in art, numismatics and epigraphy, with museum visits forming an important part of the programme. Teaching comprises two core modules - one is a language module and the other focuses on issues of reception, historiography and museum display - plus your choice of optional modules. Options can be taken from within the Classics Department or you may decide to study a module from a related department, such as History of Art. Over the summer, you will complete a supervised dissertation, enabling you to independently research an area of personal academic interest in more depth. Why take an MA in visual and material culture? Are you interested in the art and archaeology of the Ancient World, or the history and archaeology of Ancient Rome and/or Ancient Greece? Looking for research training prior to a PhD? Do you want a grounding in ancient material culture as a step to a future career in museums work or education?
