THE PROGRAM

The Ph.D. Program in Art History at The Graduate Center is dedicated to the development of scholars, teachers, museum personnel, art critics, and other professionals specializing in the history of art and architecture, while providing students with a full general background in the history of art. Students in the program are prepared to serve their discipline and their communities in all areas of cultural endeavor.

The program offers concentrations in painting, sculpture, architecture, urbanism and design, the graphic arts, photography, cinema, criticism, and theory.

RESOURCES FOR TRAINING AND RESEARCH

The Art History program offers a Digital Resources Collection for the instructional use and research of faculty and graduate students. The collection contains approximately 250,000 digital images. New York City, with its museums, galleries, libraries, and art activities, provides unparalleled opportunities for the study of art history through firsthand experience with art objects and monuments. Arrangements have been made through the cooperation of various art institutions for City University students to avail themselves of these resources. In order to expand traditional methods of study and research, courses may include field trips, assignments for independent study, work projects, cooperative ventures, specialized training in new techniques of research, and meetings with important artists and critics. Every effort will be made to introduce the student to active participation in the rich art life of this cultural metropolis.
