Undergraduate
The Department of History of Art and Architecture offers the BA in two majors: history of art and architecture and architectural studies. The art history major emphasizes broadly applicable skills of critical thinking, visual analysis, and oral and written expression; majors can use this preparation as a path into graduate or professional school in a variety of fields, or as a path into an arts-related career. The architectural studies major is a preprofessional program that specifically prepares students for graduate study at an architecture school or for a related career in the building/design professions.
The Department of History of Art and Architecture also offers a certificate in Historic Preservation.
This program is intended to provide students with a framework of related courses in various disciplines that they can expand their knowledge of this area of study.
The department provides undergraduate advising for all majors and students seeking the certificate. Listed below are links useful to students:
