About the Department
The Department of Art History offers study in the principal art and architectural traditions of Europe, the United States, and Asia. Courses are appropriate for students interested in history, art, and the larger cultural context of society. They are also suitable for students intending to concentrate on the practice of art or environmental design. The curriculum provides courses that introduce undergraduates to art traditions, courses focused on specific topics that allow small classes and discussion format, and seminars intended for upper-division undergraduate and graduate students. In addition, the department offers undergraduate majors and graduate students special courses on critical methodology.
Preparation. Students expecting to transfer to the art history program from two-year colleges should include in their program the equivalent of the History of Western Art I,II,III (ARH 204, 205, 206) and two years of a foreign language (see General Requirements table below). They should also complete as many of the university general-education requirements as possible.
Careers. The undergraduate program in art history leads to opportunities in the business world, art museums, and galleries. Students with graduate degrees in art history can pursue opportunities in teaching at all levels. The department provides career advising; information on career, internship, and fellowship opportunities; and current information on graduate programs.
Financial Assistance
The department offers a number of awards and scholarships for undergraduate and graduate students in art history, including the Mr. and Mrs. Eric G. Clarke Scholarship in Oriental Art, Marian C. Donnelly Book Prize, Ellen Johnston-Laing Award in Chinese and Japanese Art History, Kari Fund, Gloria T. Lee Graduate Scholarship in in Art History, Gloria T. Lee Scholarship in in Art History, Ina McClung Art Scholarship Award, and Sponenburgh Endowment for the History of Aesthetics of Sculpture. Students may apply for the Maude I. Kerns Graduate Teaching Fellowship or the Kerns Internship in Visual Resources. Support for travel is available through the Marian C. Donnelly Student Award, the Graduate Travel Award, and Amy and Ross Kari Travel Grant. Students may also seek scholarship aid through the School of Architecture and Allied Arts and the university’s financial aid office.
Undergraduate Studies [back to top]
The major combines the study of art history with liberal and fine arts and leads to the bachelor of arts (B.A.) degree. The program provides a broad perspective for understanding art, history, and culture as well as a basis for critical judgment of individual works. The department offers courses on art and architecture in the following areas or traditions: ancient (Greek and Roman), medieval, Renaissance-baroque, modern, American, East Asian (Chinese and Japanese), Central Asian, Islamic, Pacific islands, and Native American.
Major Requirements
Art history majors must complete 95 credits of course work including 56 credits in art history courses. Majors are strongly encouraged to structure their programs in consultation with their departmental advisers. Majors should meet with their advisers every term to discuss progress toward the degree; they must consult with their advisers once each year, preferably at the beginning of fall term.
Majors must take art history courses for letter grades and pass them with grades of C- or better. Nonmajors, subject to general university requirements, may take any department course either for a letter grade or pass/no pass (P/N).
Foreign-Language Guidelines. French, German, and Italian are the most commonly used languages in Western art historical research. Chinese and Japanese are essential to study of most East Asian art history. Knowledge of these languages is required for advanced research and graduate study in art history. Majors are urged to choose one of these languages to satisfy the B.A. language requirement. Substitution of another language may be appropriate to a field of interest. Students should consider plans for advanced study and consult their advisers when selecting a language.

Graduate Studies [back to top]
The Department of Art History offers programs leading to the master of arts (M.A.) and the doctor of philosophy (Ph.D.) degrees in art history with specialization in architectural history and ancient, medieval, Renaissance-baroque, modern, and Asian art. The department offers Oregon’s only graduate degree program in art history. It is tailored to meet the needs and objectives of two kinds of students: (1) those who seek careers in the academic, art-related business, or museum worlds immediately upon completion of the M.A. degree, and (2) those who want to acquire a solid foundation in the field before pursuing studies leading to a Ph.D. degree.
Applications to the graduate program are considered once a year in January. For 20089, applications and supporting documents, including Graduate Record Examinations scores, must be received by January 15, 2008.
Master of Arts Requirements
Students who have successfully completed undergraduate programs in art history, history, or languages and literature are particularly encouraged to consider graduate studies in art history.
Candidates for the M.A. degree must complete 57 credits and satisfy the general requirements of the Graduate School for residence and the number of graded credits.
Entering graduate students must complete Graduate Studies in Art History (ARH 611) for a letter grade in the first fall term of study and continue their study of methadology in two more topically based seminars for first-year students.
Graduate students emphasizing Western art must take at least 4 graduate credits in each of the main areas of study: ancient, medieval, Renaissance and baroque, and modern. Graduate students in Asian art history must consult their advisers about distribution requirements.
At least 12 credits must be earned in graduate research seminars.
At least 9 credits must be earned in Thesis (ARH 503) and result in the presentation of a written thesis. Candidates conclude their programs by publicly presenting the results of their research.
Details about requirements for the M.A. degree are available from the department office.
Foreign-Language Requirement. New students in Western art history must demonstrate reading competency in French or German at the beginning of the first fall term by (1) passing a foreign-language examination given by the department or (2) by presenting, before the beginning of fall term, a passing score on the standardized Graduate School Foreign Language Test (GSFLT).
Proficiency in a second language is crucial for the student’s academic program. In the event that a student has not met the initial foreign-language requirement, he or she is expected to undertake course work or other appropriate study in that language and to pass either the department’s foreign-language examination or the GSFLT by the end of spring term the first year. Students who have not passed one of these examinations by the end of the first year are not allowed to register for art history courses, nor are they eligible for a graduate teaching fellowship (GTF) until the requirement is met.
Students in Chinese or Japanese art history should complete a third year of study in the appropriate language or demonstrate the ability to work at that level or above. Students who plan to enter a Ph.D. program in East Asian art history are urged to begin study of the second East Asian language.
Students whose areas of study require languages other than French, German, Chinese, or Japanese should consult their advisers about appropriate language training.
Doctor of Philosophy Requirements
Students are not usually admitted to the Ph.D. program unless they have successfully completed a master’s degree in art history or a closely related field. Course work for the degree consists of 48 post-M.A. credits, selected with the advice and consent of the student’s adviser.
Foreign-Language Requirement. Students in Western art history must meet the language requirement by passing examinations in both French and German. Proficiency in one of the two languages must be demonstrated no later than the end of the first year by passing the department’s fall-term examination (or, if necessary, the spring examination) or the GSFLT. The second foreign-language requirement must be passed by the end of the second year of study. A student who is unable to pass either requirement within the stated time is not allowed to continue art history course work toward the degree, nor is the student eligible for a GTF until the language requirement is successfully met.
Doctoral students in East Asian art must demonstrate proficiency in either Chinese or Japanese language, depending on the field of study, and have a beginning reading knowledge of the second East Asian language. Students whose areas of study require other languages should consult their advisers about appropriate language training. They must also pass a reading examination in an appropriate European language.
Advancement to Candidacy. Students are officially advanced to candidacy in the Ph.D. program upon completion of comprehensive examinations in three areas of art history: two related areas, in one of which the dissertation is written, and a third unrelated area. These areas are selected from an established list in the department. The comprehensive examinations should be taken before completion of the 48 credits beyond the M.A. More information is available from the Department of Art History.
