Studying at the Warburg Institute

We offer postgraduate study in ideas, images, and society: medieval to modern. As a student of the Warburg Institute, you will have access to some of the best resources for the academic study of the humanities in London.

MA Programmes

Our taught MA programmes provide unparalleled staff contact hours with internationally renowned academics. They give students a deep and systematic understanding of their chosen field of study whilst training them in the advanced skills – including languages and palaeography - required to undertake primary-sourced based research.
