The art/art history major is in many ways unique in that it combines a studio program in art with a concentration in art history. Ideal as an introduction to a career in art in both theory and practice, the major is worked out with the help of the art program advisor. Career options include graduate work (master’s and doctoral levels) in art history, museum work, conservation and preservation, and arts administration.
