At Durham University’s School of Modern Languages and Cultures, the BA in Visual Arts and Film and the MA in Visual Culture offer intellectually rigorous and creatively engaging undergraduate and postgraduate degrees in visual culture, film studies, and the visual arts.
Across both levels of study, students explore visual and moving-image media in historical, global, and cultural contexts, developing strong critical, analytical, and visual literacy skills.
The programmes combine interdisciplinary theory with creative, project-based, and professional practice, supported by links with galleries, museums, and cultural organisations.
Whether beginning an undergraduate degree or advancing postgraduate expertise, these programmes provide a strong foundation for careers in the cultural and creative sectors, as well as for further academic research.
Explore the world of the visual arts and film from a global and historical perspective. Combine the high-level critical study of visual culture with a range of practical and professional skills.
MA Visual Culture looks across time and place to offer you the opportunity to develop your knowledge of visual culture and arts, and to understand how and why we interact with objects and images.
