由于我们座落在一个无穷艺术资源的城市，魏斯曼为艺术史研究提供了特殊的机会。我们强调在各种历史背景下进行艺术研究的价值，并使学生能够在整个历史中加深对视觉文化的了解和理解。对艺术史和戏剧相结合的兴趣感兴趣的学生可以作为特设专业的一部分。根据教职顾问的建议，可以从两个或多个学科中选择课程。有兴趣在特设专业中修读艺术史课程的学生，应安排与该系的教职顾问会面。
Because we are located in a city of endless artistic resources, Weissman offers special opportunities for the study of art history. We emphasize the value of investigating art in various historical contexts and enable students to deepen their knowledge and understanding of visual culture throughout history. Students interested in a combined concentration in Art History and Theatre may do so as part of an Ad Hoc Major. Courses selected may be from two or more disciplines based on the acceptance of a proposal by the faculty advisor. Students who are interested in including art history courses in an ad hoc major should arrange to meet a faculty advisor in the department.
