College of Liberal Arts >> Art and Design
Art History is a multi-disciplinary field that immerses students in the study of diverse works of art and architecture and the cultures - past, present, geographically close and distant - that produced these works. Students will learn to use models of problem-solving from the past to find solutions for today’s challenges - aesthetic, social, and environmental.
Two years of a World Language (or equivalent placement test) are strongly recommended for any student planning on attending graduate school for art history.
54 hours; 2.0 major GPA required
A maximum of two (2) classes with a grade less than a C may be applied to the major/concentration.
