Applications
are invited for the Masters in Design History and Material Culture at
the National College of Art and Design, Dublin. The MA in Design History
and Material Culture is a pioneering course that examines the history
of design and material culture from the eighteenth century through to
the present day, providing a unique forum for the study of objects,
architecture and interiors within their social, historical and
theoretical contexts. This taught course draws on the wide-ranging
academic expertise of staff in the fields of the history of decorative
arts, craft and design, dress history, architectural history and
material culture, and benefits from close relationships with a wide
range of museums and cultural institutions.
Seminars and lectures on campus at NCAD are complemented by a study
trip to London and sessions at the National Museum of Ireland and
various historic properties. The course is offered on a full-time or
part-time basis over one or two years respectively. For more information
on this MA programme email the programme coordinator, Dr. Anna Moran.
Further information is also available on the course website.
