Art History Major, BA (NYC)
The Bachelor of Arts in Art History program provides you with a strong undergraduate education in art history, art connoisseurship, and art theory. Courses introduce the major periods in the history and development of Western art, as well as the arts of Latin America, Africa, and Asia.  Seniors complete their degree with two advanced seminars.

Making maximum use of the city's resources, classes frequently visit museums and galleries where you examine works of art on a firsthand basis. In addition, you have access to scholarly books, archives and journals in the many research libraries available in New York.

You may combine your academic studies with practical experiences in the field through museum and art gallery internships, which may be completed for credit towards the major.
