Bachelor of Arts in Art History/Italian Studies

Art History offers students critical insights into the ways art and cultural expression have developed over time and across continents. We sharpen students visual skills, develop students writing abilities, and spark students imaginations with images, objects, and buildings that have been worshipped, stirred revolutions, delighted, or outraged. Local museums, including the UD Library, Museums and Press, often serve as laboratories for students to develop their talents as critics and curators. We offer courses in American (including Native American, African American and Latin American), European, African, Asian, and Islamic art, material culture, and architecture. There are multiple opportunities for double majors and joint majors that support students combined interests including Art Conservation, Anthropology, English, History, and several Languages, Literatures & Cultures. Through the study of the full range of artistic creativity, we challenge students to become citizens of the world.

Discover the fascination of Italy and Italian. Students enrolled in the Italian program will find it to be one of the most rewarding and positive linguistic and cultural experiences imaginable. A dedicated and expert faculty offer dynamic courses in language, literature, culture and civilization, film, history, politics and current events as well as classes in translation. On campus and through study abroad, master the four language skills listening, speaking, reading, writing while immersing yourself in the culture of Italy. Prepare for graduate study or for a career in international business, journalism, translation, editing, marketing, travel, teaching or many other fields.
