Minor in Art History Requirements for a Minor in Art History: A minimum of 8 semester hours to include ARTS 0, ARHS 29, ARHS 292, and three additional art history courses. A student must notify the department of his or her intent to minor. The minor is especially suitable for students majoring in anthropology, English, foreign languages, history, philosophy, and music. Requirements for Departmental Honors in Art: As part of the Honors Studies Program of the J. William Fulbright College of Arts and Sciences, the department of art provides the opportunity for academically superior junior- and senior-level students to acquire broader and deeper knowledge and skills in the visual arts and related disciplines. This is accomplished through independent research projects in studio art and/or art history under the direction of the art faculty. Outstanding achievement is recognized by awarding the distinction Art Scholar Cum Laude. Students may apply for honors studies beginning in the second semester of their sophomore year and normally will not be accepted into the program after completion of the second semester of their junior year. The department requires each applicant to have a minimum cumulative grade-point average of.5 in all college course work, a minimum gradepoint average of.5 in all course work taken in the department of art, completed ARHS 29 and ARHS 292, completed at least 20 semester hours of work in art department courses, and at least 0 semester hours of general education requirements. Included in those hours, a student must complete and defend an honors thesis and take 2 hours, which may include 6 hours of thesis, in honors studies. Higher degree distinctions take into consideration the student s entire academic career and are recommended for only those students whose honors projects and programs of study demonstrate a truly exceptional degree of creativity and scholarship.
