Description:

Art History offers students an exciting forum for developing critical skills in interpreting visual imagery and understanding the significance of art in a variety of cultures and historical periods, including the contemporary moment. Courses span the history of art from the ancient to the contemporary worlds, and investigate art from Europe, North and South America, and Asia. The Art History programs (Specialist, Major, Minor) train students in foundational methods of interpretation as well as the newest approaches in the field. Specialization in this program may lead to curatorial work in galleries, museums, or corporations; careers in illustration, advertising, web design, film, and graphic design; journalism; teaching at the high school or university level following graduate study; independent artistic activities; or simply to deeper engagement with, and enjoyment of, art.
