The University
of Alabama at Birmingham and The University of Alabama,
Tuscaloosa, jointly offer a graduate program leading to
the Master of Arts degree in Art History which prepares
students for further academic study at the doctoral level
or for professional careers in museums, galleries, and other
arts-related fields. Students may enroll on either campus
and must take at least 6 hours of course work at each. The
M.A. program offers a wide range of art history courses
and graduate seminars. Possible areas of concentration include
Medieval, Renaissance, Baroque, Nineteenth Century, Twentieth
Century/Contemporary, and Asian Art. The small size of the
program affords graduate students the opportunity to work
closely with individual faculty members on both campuses
in seminars and directed research projects. The M.A. in
Art History provides students with a thorough grounding
in art history, critical thinking, and research methods.
Degree requirements include 24 hours of art history course
work, a reading knowledge of French or German, a comprehensive
examination, and a thesis.
