Course Information

Through Saint Louis University’s undergraduate program in art history, students learn the essential skills of critical analysis, research and communication via the examination of the social context in which art was historically — and continues to be — created. SLU's art history faculty members offer a broad field of study that ranges from the earliest civilizations, the Western canon of art and the art of world cultures to the beginnings of modernity and the most current movements in contemporary art.

Art history is an interdisciplinary field that incorporates essential skills from a variety of humanities disciplines such as history, philosophy, theology and economics, and students analyze artworks and the societies that have affected the disciplines.

Additional highlights include:

  • In the Jesuit tradition, art history faculty at SLU educate the whole person about humanistic values as expressed through the history of art.
  • At SLU, art history courses offer intimate class sizes with individualized attention from faculty.
  • SLU art history students engage with arts and cultural institutions locally and nationally through class visits, field trips, internships and employment.
