About this course

Why choose this course?

If you are interested in developing a career in the arts market, particularly in the appraisal of arts and artefacts, this new course is ideal. A unique programme in the UK, Kingston’s BA Arts Market is run jointly by the School of Surveying and the School of Art and Design History, with a course content that reflects this partnership.

The degree is validated by the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) and, on successful completion of the course, you will become a Probationary Member of the Art and Antiques Faculty of the RICS.

What will you study?

Core modules will give you a thorough grounding in the history of art and design; the principles and practice of valuation; and the legal frameworks within which the art market functions.

Visits to galleries and fairs, and meetings with a range of art market professionals, flesh out the teaching and will introduce you to the realities of the international art world.
