Course summary

Overview

Our joint honours course allows students to pursue their own areas of interest within Anthropology and History of Art whilst also providing them with a solid foundation in both disciplines and a range of personal and professional skills which will serve as a springboard for their future career development. The programme is carefully designed to enable students to gradually develop their knowledge and skills and become autonomous, effective and independent learners.

When you study Anthropology, you’ll explore what makes us human, what drives our diversity and how we’re connected to our environment. The History of Art course at Brookes places a particular stress on the study of works of art and buildings at first-hand, with almost all modules including guided visits to sites in Oxford or London.

Links between research and undergraduate teaching are an important and distinctive feature of the programme, and the combined research experience and competencies of staff have shaped its design, content and delivery.

Learning and assessment

In your first year, you’ll explore what it means to be human. You’ll learn about gender in different societies, you’ll explore ancient human communities and you’ll learn about our endangered primate cousins. You’ll develop the core skills and concepts needed for History of Art whilst studying an exciting range of material from Renaissance paintings and buildings to modern British art and museums.

In your second year, you’ll be able to focus on areas that interest you such as human origins and archaeology, international development, environment and conservation. You will be able to focus more deeply on specific art historical periods, and have the option of going on a residential field trip (usually to Paris).

In your final year, you’ll have the freedom to focus on what you care about most, including your dissertation subject. You might examine the illegal wildlife trade, or investigate habitat loss, or study any one of a wide range of art historical topics. You will be able to explore the profession of curating and put on your own exhibition.
