History of Art MA
University Of Westminster
Evgenia, November 2007Overall score
Study experience
The programme sounds brilliant but, in fact, is very raw. Also it sounds as if you are very involved in Art world, but in reality you spend most of the days at a library. Very strong in an academic sense. Professors are different, sometimes are nice, but sometimes boring too. I feel that I am doing well due to my ability and desire to study, whereas for many students it is not encouraging. there are variety of internships to choose along with the programme that makes further employment easier.
Facilities
It consists of two parts: first - 6 months in Paris, second 1,5 years in London. In London it is the mansion of a wonderful museum - the Wallace collection. There are computers with Internet at the library; also there is a kitchen with tea/coffee facilities. Location is great, near Oxford street. In Paris it is also very central, near the Louvre and rue de Rivoli. Also with this student card you get a free entrance to most European museums, but England.
Postgraduate life
Students are from all over the world, so the environment is international. But we are too different, and I made friends with one girl of my programme only. Mostly girls as usual in humanities.
