Art History - Duke University

Art History from Duke University is a Campus Bachelor Art History degree that prepares you for a Art and Design career. The major in art history requires at least eleven courses, eight of which are at the 100-level or above. Both introductory art history courses, Art History 69 and 70, are required, as well as Visual Arts 54 (Introduction to Visual Practice). The other eight courses must include at least one course in each of the following five areas: ancient, medieval, Renaissance/Baroque, modern, and non-western, and may include two courses in Visual Studies. One of the eleven courses must be a 200-level seminar Students planning to attend graduate school should consider taking two 200-level seminars: Art History 296S (Methodology of Art History), and a second seminar in the same field as a 100-level course already taken by the student. For example, Art History 141, (Fifteenth-Century Italian Art), is a logical preparation for Art History 247S (Topics in Italian Renaissance Art). Two years of a foreign language at the college level are strongly recommended. Students interested in preparing for graduate work in architecture should supplement their major requirements with the following courses: Visual Arts 54 and 100; Mathematics 31, 32, and 103; and/or Physics 53L or 54L; and/or Civil and Environmental Engineering 161 or 162.
