All final year History students study in Venice in their Autumn Term

While they are in Italy, the students take a module on the history of Venice in the Renaissance. They are given a unique opportunity to study the history of a great Mediterranean city while living in it, and Venice is well-suited for the purpose, since its overall appearance and structure have changed so little in the last four hundred years.

A term in Venice is an integral learning experience for our History of Art students

The first cohort of third year BA art history students arrived in Venice with their teachers in 1976 and the MAs followed in the late 1990s. They are joined from time to time by PhD students who may introduce them to their dissertation topic in front of say, Paolo Veneziano or Titian. We teach and research the art and architecture of Venice and its global empire from the middle ages to the present on site: in churches, squares, museums, at the Biennale and even on bridges!
