  • Worcester is a good place and the industry is booming. I had a good experience and their main issue was the gentrification. I had a good experience above all.

When you study the history of art, you study the history of power, identity, and culture in human societies across the globe. Leading to a bachelor of arts degree, the art history major looks at creative works in context, tracing the human experience throughout the ages in relation to the visual art, sculpture, and architecture of a given time. Whether considering the ruins of ancient Turkey or the work of contemporary Worcester artists, you’ll gain insight into art’s ability to reflect and resonate with social and cultural beliefs and events.

About the course: The university experience was good. It was a small liberal arts school with lots of potential. Class size was small which made everyone to talk and know each other. The staff was welcoming and helpful. Its not a sporty school. Clark is a good school.

About the course: Small rooms, no dorm community thing, RA's are nice to all students, but very little engagement is seen when it comes to events and community. Expensive cost, living on campus is much cheaper.

Course programme

As an art history major, you’ll complete at least 11 courses — ten in art history and one in studio art. The program offers courses in ancient, Renaissance/Baroque, modern, and non-Western art. You should plan to take at least one course in non-Western art, and at least two courses in each of the other areas. All students take three core courses:

  • From the Stone Age to Our Age: Monuments and Masterpieces of Western Art
  • Art, the Public, and the History of Worcester (a Problems of Practice course)
  • The Art of Art History: Teaching and Methods (senior capstone)

As part of the senior-year capstone course, you’ll lead a semester-long weekly discussion section for the introductory course From the Stone Age to Our Age, an opportunity that allows you to share your enthusiasm for and knowledge of art.

Like many art history majors at Clark, you might choose to complete a second major; e.g., studio art, history, philosophy, or geography. Requirements for the major are slightly different if you double-major.
