Department of Art History offers 4+1 option

This year, the Department of Art History has designed an M.A. in Art History for Museum Professionals as a 4+1 option in order to expand career opportunities for undergraduate art history majors interested in art museum careers, such as collections management, museum education, exhibit design and installation, marketing and communications, among others. This accelerated program, open only to UD art history majors, will offer both in-depth art historical education and museum training, strategically combining existing resources within the University of Delaware. It will prepare students to enter the art museum workforce with the in-depth art historical knowledge and practical experience necessary to succeed. Moreover, it will allow art history majors to "jumpstart" the master's degree in their senior year, and obtain an advanced degree in just one additional year.
