Associate in Arts in Art History for Transfer Degree (AA-T)

The Art History program provides students with an awareness of how art relates to economic, political, religious, and social contexts. Our art history courses prepare students for transfer to upper division study by developing and improving research and writing skills, critical thinking skills, and visual and information literacy, and provide fundamental training in world art studies. Knowledge of art history engenders heightened understanding and empathy of history, a familiarity with the major issues in human cultural development, and exposure to the artistic expression of varied cultures and civilizations.

A grade of "C" (or "P") or better is required for all core courses used for the degree or certificates. In addition, the student must obtain a minimum GPA of 2.0.
