About the course
The Department of History of Art and Architecture focuses on ancient through modern world art and architecture and serves to connect the arts to the other humanities. Interdisciplinary by definition, the department encourages students to develop both visual and cultural literacy through extensive study of works of art and architecture and the historical contexts in which they were created. Images are both subtle and ambiguous, they can both complement and contradict other texts. The ability to see, interpret, and evaluate visual images of all types is an ever-more-important skillset in our increasingly visual world. From cave painting to computer-generated virtual realities, our students engage with the visual legacy of the past while preparing to function in the realm of the non-textual.
History of Art and Architecture offers a major in History of Art, a major in Architecture and the Built Environment, and minors in both those fields. Students who major in History of Art or in Architecture and the Built Environment must take advanced seminars related to the faculty?s areas of research and publication. These courses offer an important opportunity to interact ly with professors while pursuing a focused research topic. Scholarships - View all scholarships Internships
