Teaching


The courses offered change from year to year, but recent MA offerings have included:

 

 

 

Research


There is a very active community of researchers. Undergraduates and MAs are encouraged to join current (and often former) PhDs at the regular meetings of the Modern and Contemporary Research Seminars, which attract distinguished scholars in London and beyond. Public lectures with acclaimed visiting speakers are regularly organised, and the Courtauld organises and hosts colloquia and large-scale conferences in connection with events such as exhibitions.

 

MA dissertation titles

MA students write their dissertations either on material arising directly from their course or, with their supervisor’s approval, on any other viable topic. The best dissertations achieve publishable standard in leading journals.

 

Titles or fields of research (MPhil and PhD) of students currently registered at the Courtauld Institute

With the range of interests and expertise of the staff, and the availability of research resources in London, research students are encouraged to undertake pioneering work in a range of areas of art history. The large number of active research students in the modern and contemporary area creates a supportive and stimulating environment.

 

Recently completed PhDs

Many PhDs will be published in whole or in part, substantially revised or in some cases substantially as submitted.
