Art History
Master's in Art History
This two-year program consists of academic coursework, independent research and supervised
curatorial projects. Students are encouraged to participate in co-curricular workshops,
conferences, internships and travel programs. Our graduate program offers significant
historical and geographical breadth, with courses that explore Northern and Southern
Europe, the United States, East Asia, Latin America and the Islamic world. Art History
at OSU differs from most traditional art history programs by emphasizing circuits
of exchange and intercultural networks. Faculty consider broad themes such as gender,
globalization, transnationalism, propaganda and modernity from a wide range of theoretical
and historical perspectives.
