 Return to: Programs (A-Z)
The minor in Art History focuses on the development of the visual arts, particularly of the histories of “high” or “fine” art, within a broad liberal arts tradition. Students study artistic images, objects, and events representing diverse cultures within a global context. The minor provides students with historical, methodological, and theoretical knowledge to interpret visual forms as expressions of historical and cultural circumstances. Art history courses put strong emphasis on the acquisition of skills in critical reading, problem solving, art historical research, and written and oral communication. Students from any college may choose to minor in art history. Bear in mind that some course options may have prerequisites.
