This programme is designed to allow students to determine, in close consultation with assigned advisors, the nature of their art history interests and the most appropriate course of studies to be followed. There is only one required course in art historical methodology after which students are required to take a certain number of credits from designated course groups and are then completely free to select the remaining 30 art history credits. Opportunities for individual research projects and intensive courses which take advantage of the occurrence of a special event or the presence of a visiting scholar make this program the most dynamic presently available in Canada. For those interested in studying art history and studio art, the Faculty of Fine Arts offers a combined major in these fields. The programme consists of 30 elective credits in both studio art and art history.
Students select their courses in consultation with an advisor.
Applicants are required to submit a portfolio as part of the admission process. The Department offers two minors available to students in programmes in the Faculty of Fine Arts and to students in other faculties. These minors may be combined with another minor in the Faculty of Fine Arts to form a Double Minor programme leading to the B.F.A. degree.
