MA Program in Art History 2007/2008
The School of Art and Art History offers two MA degrees: (1) art history and (2) art history with a museum studies concentration. This is a small program of about 30 students that emphasizes a close student-faculty collegial atmosphere. The art history program offers courses in most areas of world art, with special emphasis on Asian art, Precolumbian art, and on European and American art from the Middle Ages to the present. In addition to our own Victoria H. Myhren Gallery, our partnership with the Denver Art Museum provides additional opportunities for internships and museum and exhibition-based courses.
Our graduates land sought-after positions. Some go on to doctoral studies in the United States or overseas; others hold respected jobs at distinguished art museums. Still others take the road less traveled, entering careers in the diplomatic service, marketing or management positions with art-related nonprofit organizations.
At the School of Art and Art History we offer many advantages, including:
• small classes and personal attention
• in-depth training in art history and research methods
• an on-site art gallery
• practical museum training
• museum internships in local and national institutions
• world travel opportunities
• a strong alumni network
