In addition to our class offerings at the university, we offer courses in museum studies at MOCA, the contemporary art museum in the heart of downtown Jacksonville. The museum studies courses enable students to actively engage with the collection and museum professionals.
Students may even choose to complete an internship with the museum following the course.
- MOCA (Museum of Contemporary Art, Jacksonville)
- The Cummer Museum of Art & Gardens
As a student in the Art History department you will also have the opportunity to Study Abroad in Rome. The month-long summer trip is a life-changing, fast-paced adventure visiting ancient ruins and museums to standing in the Sistine Chapel staring up at the marvelous work of Michelangelo.
Upon completion of your Art History studies at UNF, you will have gained extensive knowledge of major artists and artworks in various art historical periods, and will have developed adequate research skills should you choose to continue on with your studies, pursuing a Master?s degree or a Ph.D.
