Visual Cultures · Historical, philosophical and religious studies
The MRes in Visual Cultures is ideal if you have already completed an advanced course of study in art history and theory but would like to further develop your thought and research projects before studying at MPhil/PhD level. - This programme is for students who have a special interest in contemporary visual culture. It offers a challenging, flexible, and advanced scheme of study that explores a range of theoretical perspectives that shape attitudes towards visual culture understood globally in the late 20th and early 21st century. - The MRes qualifies you to carry out higher research, but is also a degree in its own right and can be tailored to suit your requirements. - Invigorated by current research, the programme encourages students to engage in an exploratory interrogation of the relationships between critical theory and visual practice understood broadly.
Getting in
As the university states it
You should normally have (or expect to be awarded) an undergraduate degree of at least upper second class standard (or equivalent) in a relevant subject. You might also be considered if you aren’t a graduate or your degree is in an unrelated field, but have relevant experience and can show that you have the ability to work at postgraduate level. We accept a wide range of international qualifications. If English isn’t your first language, you will need an IELTS score (or equivalent English language qualification) of 6.5 with a 6.5 in writing and no element lower than 6.0 to study this programme.
