The Bachelor of Arts in Art History provides an interdisciplinary approach to visual and material culture, which, in keeping with the university’s mission, seeks to develop students who are both knowledgeable in their chosen fields and prepared to be productive, responsible citizens with a global perspective. The discipline of art history fosters fundamental research skills, effective writing, and the ability to critically evaluate diverse imagery and ideas. As such, the program offers foundational studies in global art history and practices, more advanced courses which culturally contextualize visual and material objects, and theoretical classes enhancing critical thinking, as well as capstone experiences intended to demonstrate advanced research and writing skills.
- SLO 1 Demonstrate knowledge of artistic and cultural styles and traditions across cultures and periods, from ancient to contemporary times.
- SLO 2 Demonstrate knowledge, skills, and understanding of the visual arts through the ability to identify and discuss the historical, social, and cultural context of works of art.
- SLO 3 Demonstrate individual and professional progress through the analysis and critical examination of art, applying the principles of visual analysis and research.
- SLO 4 Develop and apply a personal and analytical voice through the ability to research critically, write effectively, and communicate clearly.
