The Department of Art offers both a BA in Art History and a Minor in Art History. Although the BA in Art History appears under the heading of “Areas of Concentrations” in the UNLV Undergraduate Catalog, it is important to note that the Art History degree is distinct from the degree, and has different requirements. The core requirements of the BA Art History degree consist of an 18 credit sequence.
Of particular note, the BA in Art History core requirements do not include ART156, Design Fundamentals III.
More information about the general education requirements of the university and other details about the current or previous catalog years of the BA in Art History are available at the UNLV catalog page.
