About this programme

A major, minor, or concentration in the Department of Art History and Archaeology lays the basis for pursuing a variety of careers in and beyond the scholarly pursuit of the history of art, museum work, and work in the commercial art world of galleries and auction houses. The visual study of the world around us continues to increase in importance as global communication becomes more often based in visual media, and understanding the sources and significance of images that form a common language of communication is crucial for anyone who aspires to play an active part in society. Art History majors have gone on to graduate education as well as careers in law, medicine, business, and academe, among others.
