The Department of Art and Archaeology focuses on examining visual arts and material artifacts across diverse cultures and historical periods. Students can choose to major in Art History or Studio Art, with additional details available about the Archaeology Certificate. The Visual Arts Program faculty lead studio courses, while Art History classes often incorporate hands-on elements. Through intimate class settings and direct engagement with original artifacts and primary materials, students investigate topics ranging from urban design in ancient Rome or modern times, printmaking and book arts in East Asia and Europe, archaeological studies of ancient and medieval periods, architectural history from Early Modern to Islamic traditions, photographic arts from the 19th to 21st centuries, and contemporary artistic practices in Africa, Latin America, and the U.S. The program also offers an interdisciplinary concentration merging art history with studio practice, culminating in a senior thesis exhibition. Requirements: Prospective Studio Art majors must complete one Art and Archaeology course and two Visual Arts studio classes by sophomore year's end. Applications with creative portfolios are due to the Lewis Center for the Arts office on the first Wednesday after spring break. The Visual Arts Program admissions committee announces acceptances by early April.
