AnnéesAccessible aux étudiants des autres facultésTravail de fin d'étude


Retour en début de pageStudy objectives

The Master in the History of Art and Archeology : General (60 credits) aims to deepen the methodological and critical learning of archeology and history of art.

This master  provides a second level training of a less specialised nature than the 120 course, but is just as complete as regards learning. It is proposed particularly with Bachelors in the History of Art and Archeology  in mind who do not want to specialise in a particular focus.

The individual final project examines a subject with a critical eye and a rigour inline with university standards.
