About this program
The Master’s degree programme in East Asian Art History is designed to give students the opportunity to acquire in-depth knowledge of the art and visual culture of China, Japan, and, to a lesser extent, Korea, for the purpose of expanding their education and gaining the practical experience required for positions as curators, gallery owners, journalists, etc. Students in the Master’s degree programme will receive instruction in advanced research methods and subject content and will then apply these in both academic and university-external practice. Graduates have chosen to specialise in the select field of East Asian Art History, learning about current expert knowledge in the subject area and both linking this to previously-acquired knowledge as well as developing it further. They possess advanced knowledge and methodological skills in the areas of iconography, form and style, art categories and techniques, methodology, and art history. They have the ability to both precisely comprehend and describe complex art-historical topics and phenomena based on their formal construction, technical production, or aesthetic quality as well as to be able to categorise these according to broader art-historical and research interrelationships or by using new approaches outside of conventional art history. It is mandatory to choose a minor subject in combination with this Master programme. For further information please refer to the Examination Rules and Regulations.
