About the course
Art and Architecture History focuses on the different roles that art, architecture, and visual culture of places around the globe have played in human development. Emphasis is placed on how art reflects not only its specific history, but the aesthetic, social, philosophical, and religious values of the cultures that produce it. Art and Architecture History is an interdisciplinary major that includes the Departments of Art, Architecture Interior Design, the program in Classical Studies, and the Miami University Art Museum. Students of Art and Architecture History acquire skills that are suitable for a far wider range of professional tasks than just those that require knowledge of the content of art history. Many students pursue art history with the goal of teaching or working in a museum, gallery, auction house, or other institution in which a knowledge of the history of art across cultures and civilizations is required. By that token, the Art and Architecture History program is designed to prepare students for these types of careers. But other students study art history without having these arts- and culture-based goals in mind. This is because the skills acquired through the study of art history prepare students to enter any professional field that requires a workforce that can work independently and in groups, take on projects that require inquisitiveness and intellectual versatility, distill information effectively, persuasively, and efficiently through written and spoken communication, and learn about and acquire broad expertise in order to expand knowledge and forge new pathways for innovative solutions to complex problems.
