Visual Culture
Visual culture is an exciting interdisciplinary initiative which incorporates a number of established subject areas, including art history and cultural studies.
It particularly appeals to students with a background or interest in fine and modern art, the history of art, cinema, literature, cultural history, philosophy, sociology or modern languages, and draws upon interdisciplinary research across these areas.
