Durham University's School of Modern Languages and Cultures invites qualified students to apply for its taught MA in Visual Culture. There is a rolling deadline, but students are encouraged to apply by June 1, 2018 for entrance in the 2018/2019 academic year. The MA in Visual Culture at Durham is a distinctive interdisciplinary programme that invites students to develop their knowledge of visual culture, situating that knowledge in relation to working practices in cultural institutions, including museums, galleries and other heritage organisations. It will be of interest to students from a wide range of humanities and social science disciplines, as well as to visual arts and visual culture professionals who wish to reflect upon their practice in historical or theoretical contexts. Students may have the opportunity to work with a range of partner institutions across the North East, including Auckland Castle and the Bowes Museum, and beyond. They will benefit from being closely integrated into Durham’s Centre for Visual Arts & Culture. Durham University offers several scholarships for taught MA programmes, including Postgraduate Student Support Scholarships of £3,000 (deadline May 25, 2018). Durham alumni who obtained their first degree from the University are eligible to receive a 25% discount on any taught postgraduate programme in Durham's Faculty of Arts and Humanities.
