The course consists of one component, titled Art History and its Materials and Techniques. This is a single-semester course taught in semester one. It examines some of the most common issues of the discipline such as style labels, periodization, the role of patrons, and the wide range of media used by artists at different times. It will also look at the practice of art history itself in the writings of notable art historians from Vasari onwards.

The course examines and evaluates different approaches to understanding and treating various mental health conditions. This course equips students with the skills and knowledge to apply diverse approaches to understanding symptoms and causes of mental health conditions, such as anxiety, depression and schizophrenia. By engaging with biopsychosocial, transdiagnostic, and clinical staging models, students develop the ability to integrate evidence-based insights into simulated clinical decision-making. Importantly, the course explores the real-world impact of mental health disparities, supporting students to identify and critically evaluate systemic inequalities, for example in the prevalence of mental health challenges and in access to care.
