The Art History (HYA) area of specialization introduces students to the wide range of styles and periods of art across a variety of geographic locations. Basic survey courses are required (ARH 2050 and/or ARH2051) as a prerequisite and then students can begin upper division art history courses which allow students to delve into more specific areas of interest, as well as gain an understanding of the methodology of art history.
