MA Islamic Art and Cultures

A basic grounding in Arabic will be accompanied by a core interdisciplinary module that will present the wide range of approaches that can be taken to the vast area and chronological scope of the field.

You will be taught by leading figures in the field, and have access to both the library resources and a large global network of partner institutions with large collections of Islamic art. The programme will give you a broad understanding of the material culture of the Islamic world from a wide range of times, places, and methodological perspectives.

Through a range of interdisciplinary approaches, this programme will provide you with the skills to pursue further study of a wide range of aspects relating to the art and culture of the Islamic world, from the seventh century to today.
