About

Overview The Art History major at the Drake University will prepare you to navigate the complexity of visual culture, whether past or present, by introducing you to the specialized language and strategies of image making as well as by providing you with a rigorous historical introduction to the production, interpretation, and circulation of images.Drake’s curriculum employs new models of teaching and theorizing art history in order to acknowledge changes in the field. For example, unlike the long-standing emphasis on chronology in beginning surveys of art history, the introductory courses at Drake employ a thematic approach that traces formal and conceptual concerns across multiple time periods and cultures. Upper-level courses offer critical re-examinations of the categories fundamental to the founding of art history including national tradition, stylistic periods, and definitions of modernity.Careers and InternshipsStudents can enhance their art and design education and supplement their resume or professional portfolio with internships and off-campus employment in a variety of art-related areas. Students have completed internships for art history credit at the Anderson Gallery, Des Moines Art Center, Salisbury House, the State Historical Society of Iowa, and commercial art galleries.Drake provides students with many opportunities to engage with art outside the classroom. The Department of Art and Design holds exhibitions of work by students, faculty, and invited artists during the school year, including the annual juried Student Art Exhibition.

We live in an image-saturated world but few of us possess the critical tools to analyze images and to understand their use. At the Drake University we offer a bachelor degree in Art History.
