Degrees and Specializations
The graduate program in Art History offers M.A. and Ph.D. degrees. The programs cover a wide range of areas informed by Indigenous knowledge and critical practices; histories of medicine, science, technology, and new media; global and transcultural perspectives. We analyze museums, exhibitions, patronage, and collecting. We draw from gender, sexuality, and feminist studies, along with decolonizing, postcolonial and critical-race perspectives. The department's periods of specialization range from antiquity to the contemporary moment.平特五不中 is situated in Montreal, a city that offers myriad opportunities for graduate students to engage with local arts and media venues.
