Art History gives students an appreciation for the long and varied history of visual communication.

The Art History Minor focuses on the vast changes in art and design over centuries of time, geography and cultures.
An active study/intern abroad program in London, along with many short-term travel opportunities throughout the world, enhances the art history curriculum. Integrating courses such as Art History of Photography, Art History of Design, Modern Art, World Art, Art Criticism, and American Art, the major is designed for students interested in becoming an art history professor, gallery director, museum curator, museum technician/preparator, museum registrar, museum conservator, art reviewer/critic, travel guide/writer/consultant, fine arts fund raiser/grant writer, archaeology excavation specialist, art librarian, and special collections librarian.
