HDip Arts - History of Art

Overview

This programme may be undertaken either full-time over one academic year or part-time over two. The student selects modules in the History of Art to the equivalent of 60 credits; these modules will be chosen by the student in consultation with the HDip Coordinator, having regard to timetable constraints and suitability of course combinations. Applicants with little previous knowledge of the History of Art are welcome to audit HA1001.
