    • Give students an understanding of current methodological and theoretical approaches to art history rooted in the Renaissance and early modern period
    • Encourage students to recognise, critique, and articulate complex ideas about the production and understanding of works of art and Renaissance cultural history
    • Develop advanced research and analytical skills that are highly valued transferrable skills as well as good preparation for further academic study
    • Provide a stepping stone for those who wish to progress to further postgraduate study, as students will gain 60 credits towards a master’s degree
