Overview

The Art Major is offered by Austin College. We offer a major in Art with a Studio or Art History focus, and minors in Art and Art History. Our program affords students a broad base in the study of visual art by offering courses in a variety of media, as well as in art history.

Key Facts

Students assemble these building blocks to serve their unique goals. The Art History program focuses on teaching students how to analyze and interpret art within historical contexts. Through its points of contact with literature, history, philosophy, religion, economics, music, biology, political science, and physics, for example, art history builds bridges between the visual arts and other disciplines. For those students who are interested in pursuing graduate work or a career in visual art or art history, we are able to provide a high level of individualized attention. Our alumni apply their educations to a wide array of careers, including museum and gallery work, art education, art therapy, medical illustration, architecture, and even unexpected occupations like prosthetics design and custom guitar fabrication. Students who study art at Austin College do not just become skilled technicians; the skills and abilities learned by studying art and art history – creativity, problem solving, critical thinking, synthesis, and interpreting visual information – are all highly valuable, and serve students in careers both within and outside of the arts.
