The Master’s Degree in History of Art provides graduates with advanced theoretical and methodological tools in the study of Medieval, Modern, and Contemporary Art History, as well as Ancient Art and Material Culture, including Greek, Etrusco-Italic, and Roman art. This education equips graduates to work autonomously in research and archaeological exploration, teaching and dissemination of research results, and in the fields of cultural heritage preservation, museum design, and management.

Having acquired a solid understanding of historical contexts and stylistic periodization in the undergraduate program, the Master’s Degree program expands theoretical and methodological knowledge through teaching approaches that foster the contextual analysis and understanding of artistic and craft phenomena through the most advanced diagnostic techniques and interpretative models.

Practical training activities include:

  • Museum or art gallery internships, in Italy or abroad.
  • Projects in historical archives of heritage authorities.
  • Technical-professional experiences.
  • Documented educational trips and study stays at sites of historical and artistic significance.
  • For students choosing the archaeological curriculum, participation in an excavation campaign or equivalent field activities.
