Art history is fundamentally cross-disciplinary, and we encourage applications from diverse academic backgrounds.
Our MA in Art History equips students for both PhD programs and careers in art-related fields such as museums, galleries, and publishing. We offer substantial financial assistance, including travel grants for conference presentations and summer research funding, regardless of location. Special scholarships are available for Renaissance studies and for MA candidates investigating architecture and art history in Germany and Poland.
The program includes coursework, teaching opportunities, and proficiency in at least one research language prior to completing a Qualifying Paper. This project expands upon course material, transforming a term paper into a polished work through faculty mentorship. These cultivated skills create a solid basis for professional achievement, whether within art history or other domains.
