Victoria and Albert Museum

The V&A/RCA postgraduate programme (including MA, MPhil and PhD) in the History of Design invites applications for 2013/14.  Celebrating its 30th anniversary this year, the Programme is internationally recognized as the leading centre for postgraduate study in design history and material culture. Combining ambitious, rigorous and cutting-edge scholarly approaches with a first-hand understanding of objects, the History of Design programme is ideally suited to prepare students for the increasingly diverse and flexible professional portfolio that is demanded today.

MA Programme: Run in partnership by the V&A and the RCA, the MA is a two year full-time programme and offers a unique platform for study in three specialist areas:

- Renaissance and Early Modern

- Modern and Contemporary

- Asian, Early Modern to Contemporary

Taught by a dedicated team of academics, the programme has an established reputation for pioneering new forms of design historical enquiry in global contexts, from the fifteenth century to the present day. The seminar-based classes provide a unique environment for the study of the aesthetic, social, cultural, technological, economic and political contexts for design. 

 

The programme specialises in object-focused scholarship ranging across the histories of architecture and interior design, fashion and textiles, furniture and product design, ceramics, metalwork, glass, prints, drawings and digital media.

Uniquely, students have direct access to the unrivalled collections and expertise of the V&A and to the highly specialised art and design practices of the RCA. Open to all students are opportunities to work with curators, and contribute to V&A gallery and exhibition projects. Graduates go on to work internationally in universities, museums and galleries, as well as in a host of other related professions such as curating, journalism, media research and design policy. The MA programme provides also an excellent preparation towards PhD research.

Scholarships available for 2013-14:

The V&A Global Fashion History Scholarship: Offered to an Overseas student who intends to undertake research in any cross-cultural aspect of fashion history. It covers Overseas fees (£26,900) for the two years of the MA.
