The objective of the master's degree
is to prepare you thoroughly for
further graduate work, or, for those
for whom it is a terminal degree,
for specialized training as the
foundation of a career. The master's
degree requires 30 graduate credits,
a reading examination in two foreign
languages (German and either French
or Italian), a thesis, and a final
comprehensive examination.
An option combining art history courses with those given in the
School of Business and Management is available if you are interested
in the administration of art collections and related cultural
institutions. Requirements include 36 graduate credits (15-18
in art history, 12-15 in business administration), a semester-
long internship (six credits, 20 hours per week), both language
examinations, and a comprehensive examination as listed above.
