Overview
Program Details
The M.A. in Art History at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln provides a comprehensive foundation in western art, as well as critical, cultural, and visual theories and methodologies. Our nationally-recognized faculty specialize in Classical, Medieval, Renaissance and Baroque Europe, American, and Modern and Contemporary art.
Our M.A. program develops skills in critical thinking and visual analysis applicable to a wide range of professional and civic pursuits. The M.A. is a necessary preliminary degree for the PhD in art history, but it’s also increasingly a requirement for entry-level employment in many arts-related fields. Our recent M.A. graduates are now studying at Cornell University, Columbia University, the University of Oklahoma, and are employed as teachers at colleges, at New York galleries, and as lawyers.
