Studying 艺术历史 will do more than help you get more out of your next visit to a museum — it will reveal the role art has played in cultures around the globe and across time.
You’ll develop a discerning eye for art and make connections between the past and present. This minor requires 18 total hours with at least 9 hours of upper-division coursework + 9 credits not applied to other majors or minors.
然后, take your knowledge to the next level by studying censorship, the art market and the role of museums. Pair your 艺术历史 minor with a major in another area of 视觉研究 or a subject like Business or 沟通, and turn your passion for art into a career as a gallery director, 策展人, museum administrator or public-art program coordinator.
For more information on the 艺术历史 minor, please contact 玛丽Brantl, associate professor of 艺术历史. The 艺术历史 minor is part of the Department of 视觉研究.
