Undergraduate
Bachelor of Arts (B.A.)
Art History
Art History connects the creative accomplishments of the past to 21st century culture.
In an age when visual messaging has become ubiquitous, the Art History program provides
students with pathways to develop critical and interpretive skill sets relevant to
various disciplines and professions. The program is currently being reimagined in
alignment with the College of Human Development, Culture, and Media’s emphasis on
transdisciplinary inquiry.
Students take courses in topics like American Art, Medieval Art, Baroque Art, African
American Arts among many others. Our accomplished alumni have gone on to work in esteemed
institutions like the Guggenheim Museum, the Whitney Museum in New York City, and
the Museum of African American Art in Philadelphia.
