Bachelor of Arts in Curating, Heritage and Human Rights
Program Overview
Can an exhibition spark social change? Who decides which stories our museums and galleries tell? How can we save heritage that is under threat from war or natural disasters? What are the ethical problems in preserving and exhibiting objects from other cultures? How do curators and heritage managers take these questions into account when they make displays and exhibitions? This degree will develop the skills you need make exciting new connections between the forms of visual culture and heritage you study, human rights, and broader social and political forces.
BA Curating, Heritage and Human Rights will deepen your knowledge of curatorial practice, whilst studying human rights, developing your confidence to advocate for individual and community rights, social justice and social change. In addition, the degree will introduce you to the critical study of heritage, including ethical and legal debates, and questions around how heritage is preserved, communicated and displayed, including issues of spectatorship and community engagement.
You will study topics including:
- History of the museum
- Curatorial ethics
- Heritage management
- Social dimensions of human rights
- Digital heritage and museums
- The role of new technologies and new media in heritage and museums
To study on our course, you don’t need an A-Level in Art or Art History. In fact, we believe that the best students of visual culture are those who bring fresh eyes and new perspectives to their objects of enquiry.
