X--Degree Programs
School of Fine Art and Music, College of Arts
The School offers programs that allow for concentrated study in Art History or Studio Arts, or for a more balanced study in the two disciplines. Both programs, however, require work in both Studio Arts and Art History. Specific requirements are listed below.
Because of the long waiting lists for many courses, students are strongly urged to heed the University regulations regarding First Class Meetings. Refer to Limited Enrolment Courses in Section VIII-Degree Regulations & Procedures.
The students who elect to take a substantial number of courses in either Art History or Studio Arts with the objective of graduate work are advised to obtain counselling from faculty regarding their choices. However, in general, it is important to know that graduate studies in Art History will usually require a reading knowledge of at least 2 languages other than English. German, French, Italian and Latin are among the most useful choices. Cognate electives in other disciplines in the College of Arts (such as History) will almost certainly prove an asset. A Studio career to the graduate level will normally require some education in all the traditional and contemporary media as well as an awareness of art theory.
All students are required to complete the following core courses:
A minimum of [9.00] credits is required, including:
A minimum of [6.00] credits is required, including:
13-249 Media of Art History, may be counted in all programs for either Art History or Studio Arts credit.
Students in the Art History Major or Minor cannot count more than a total of [14.00] credits in Art History and Studio Arts towards their honours degree.
