During your course of studies you will be able to have a basic understanding of the Greek and Latin languages and read key texts in their respective original languages. You will be able to understand the influence that this ancient world has had on our contemporary one, while also enriching your cultural and historic mindset by participating in interdisciplinary action. You are also encouraged to participate in the Erasmus+ mobility period, for a multicultural and diversified learning experience.

By learning about the historical and traditional art of the Medieval, Renaissance and Baroque periods, you will be well equipped to understand how Modern art carries on, builds upon or debunks the artistic expressions of past centuries. By learning about key artistic historic figures and their unique contributions, you will gain a deeper cultural appreciation for different impacted art forms, as you will have the chance to learn about the art modes of photography and sculpting in both practice and theory. We also encourage you to participate in the Erasmus+ mobility programme, for a more holistic and multicultural academic journey.
