About MA History Of Art And Archaeology Of East Asia in SOAS University of London

The MA History of Art and Archaeology of East Asia programme is an unrivalled opportunity to study the arts of China, Korea and Japan.

You will consider a wide range of East Asian arts and material culture, from Chinese archaeology to Japanese prints, Korean installation works to Buddhist monuments, exploring their specificity and the links between them, in historical and contemporary periods.

In many parts of East Asia archaeological evidence is key to understanding early societies. This History of Art and Archaeology of East Asia MA programme therefore also relates excavated materials to the history of art.
