Art History Careers |
The Bachelor of Arts offers art history classes in ancient, medieval,
renaissance/ baroque, modern and non-western art. Students who plan
to enter graduate study in art history should take courses in all of
these areas. At least one course in four of the five areas is required.
In the upper division
courses, students will gain understanding of the methodology of art
history and historiography. The level of study moves from the general
to the more specific. |
