Master of Arts [M.A] [European Art History] From Heidelberg University

In lectures and excursions, students will expand their knowledge of art works from a wide variety of epochs and art genres and will develop the conceptual tools necessary to a more in-depth description, categorisation, and interpretation of these objects. During the course of the degree programme, students will learn a variety of methods for analysing art works with regard to their origin, characteristics, function, and effect as well as their material and conceptual prerequisites. Students will thereby develop the ability to independently approach research questions from the area of European Art History in accordance with scientific methodology.
