The minor in art is appropriate for students wishing training in either studio art or art history; it consists of a minimum of 21 credit hours of study. The requirements for the minor consist of 6 credit hours selected from the Studio Foundations courses (ARTA 1xxx classes), 6 credit hours of 2xxx classes (ARTA or ARTH 2xxx classes), and 9 credit hours selected from 3xxx or above ARTA or ARTH classes. Grades applied to the minor must be “C” or above. Many 2xxx and above ARTA and ARTH classes include prerequisites.
