An introduction to an art world career, this programme is designed for those who are interested both in art history and in how the art world operates. Through lectures and visits to specialist museums and collections throughout the semester, students are introduced to the cultural history of London and the ways in which art has been made, sold and collected.

Students choose from a number of art and design historical modules for a personal and tailored programme. The business component of the programme examines the history, management and legal structures of both public and private art organisations. Lectures and seminars are augmented by visits to museums, galleries and historic houses, as well as to art and design dealers and the auction houses.
