The Art History minor is designed to provide students with a broad introduction to the history of art that will complement major studies in the arts, humanities, social sciences, and sciences. The histories of diverse forms of visual culture-including painting, sculpture, architecture, design, and photography, are introduced concerning their social and cultural contexts. The minor in Art History provides students with a liberal arts curriculum with a particular sensitivity to the social, rhetorical, and aesthetic roles the visual arts play in diverse cultures. The skills and knowledge acquired through the Art History minor enhance students’ appreciation of the value of cultural heritage, their communication skills, and their understanding of world history.
