Art History Certficate


Go to Department of Art History 

The Art History program in the Hartford Art School offers certification for people who are interested in college-level work in the field. A wide selection of courses allows the participant to fill in gaps in earlier education and experience. For those who pursued an entirely different field of study in college, this is a suitable way to begin the study of the history of art. For anyone who already has a bachelor’s degree in another discipline, the certificate strengthens an application to a master’s degree program in art history.

2-3 courses (6–9 credits) at the 200-level, including


4-5 courses (12-15 credits) at the 300 or 400 level
