Art History Minor

The Art History Minor provides students with opportunities to explore the history of art as undergraduate scholars interested in careers in the Arts. Course offerings prepare students for careers in the arts, museum studies, education, writing, gender and environmental studies as well as public relations and business. The program allows students to combine it with majors to pursue combined degrees that lead to graduate schools in heritage preservation, information technology and cultural law.
