[Anyone applying for a PhD in Chinese/East Asian Art History?]

Hi everyone,

Thanks for the useful info.

 

Is anyone doing their MA or PhD in Korean Art (Modern/Contemporary) or South East Asian Art (Modern/Contemporary)?

 

I am going to start my MA History of Art at SOAS next month and just wondering what people think would be a good option for a PhD in Asian Art following a MA.

 

SOAS is definitely one option but I'm wondering if there are any US universities that have strong PhDs in Asian Art History.

 

Also would they count my SOAS MA and dissertation into my PhD so I can shave off one year?

Hey cs2343, 

I'm not sure if this will get to any of you, but I was really surprised to see the same questions I have being asked almost a decade ago. I'm from Singapore too, and I'm also thinking of doing an MA in art history, but in Korea itself. SOAS' MA is one of my dream programmes, but I can't afford it. 

I wonder how you (and everyone up there in the thread) are doing?
