The Department of Art & Art History provides solid groundwork in studio art, art education, and the history of art while helping students tailor their academic experience to interests and career goals in art and related fields.
Students in the Art History minor learn about historical and contemporary art movements, art objects, artists, and aesthetics, subjects, which enhance their understanding of the artistic process. Art history students learn to analyze visual art and artists in relation to the social, political, and cultural context of their times, as well as to our world today.
