History of Art Bachelor of Arts (with Honours) - BA (Hons)

## Why study history of art at York?

Explore an extensive range of modules. You'll learn how to analyse and interpret visual material, consider how and why it was created, and what this tells us about artists and societies. Our modules introduce foundational topics, and you'll then dig deeper with options exploring art in its many forms, from across the globe and from the ancient to the contemporary.

Prepare for your career. You'll gain vocational and transferrable skills for a range of careers, and could integrate opportunities to study abroad, learn languages or spend time in industry. We have a dedicated careers officer to support you when you need it.

Learn beyond the University and make professional connections to encounter objects in different settings. We offer regular trips to cultural institutions across the country, both as part of your course and as an extracurricular. These are a great way to experience the field directly, gain firsthand knowledge and develop professional connections.
