Art History

The specialised and intensive Research Master's programme in Art History immerses you in traditional and innovative approaches to the history of art. Working in close connection with museums and heritage institutions in the Netherlands and abroad, you will acquire the theoretical insights and practical experience necessary for a career in academia or the museum world.

The programme’s traditional focus has been on the art of the Low Countries. The current programme maintains strong expertise in this field, but does not emphasize a single period or area. You will learn different art historical methods, with a focus on three new approaches that allow you to address art and material culture in terms of making, circulation, and display. In addition, you will pursue your individual interests in immersive tutorials and a 6-month internship.

For students looking for an extra challenge, Utrecht University offers several interdisciplinary honours programmes.
