The Master of Arts specialising in Art History is designed to train the candidate in art history at a graduate level and to engage in advanced level research. It is a recognised degree in vocational training and for further study.

Prerequisites

Admission to the Master of Arts program is available by two means:

  • Applicants for direct entry to the Master of Arts program should have obtained a Bachelor degree from an approved tertiary education institution, with passes at least at credit level in six courses other than first year courses; or
  • Admission to Part B is available to students who have completed the coursework courses (36 units), or equivalent, for a Graduate Diploma of Arts, specialising in Art History with an overall average mark of 70%. In the case of students transferring from Graduate Diploma enrolment, the completed Graduate Diploma coursework will count as status for Part A of the MA degree.

In the case of students who enrol initially for the MA but who fail to achieve the required 70% average mark for coursework, they will have the option of reverting to Graduate Diploma enrolment and having that credential awarded on the basis of the level of coursework completed.


Status
Status may be granted for previous study at graduate level relevant to the diploma.

Requirements

Applicants should have a four year Bachelors degree with Honours in a cognate area from an Australian tertiary institution or its international equivalent. Equivalence may be met by the completion of the  Graduate Diploma in Arts (Art History) with a minimum of 70% course average.
