Undergraduate

At UWM students will have a wide selection of courses in both the Western and Non-Western traditions.

Many of these courses deal with the careers of famous artists like Michelangelo, Picasso, and Frank Lloyd Wright. Others explore the art of long-vanished civilizations or examine current trends in art and cinema. Art History develops “portable” skills that you can take to other classes and apply to any job: research and analytical skills, creative problem-solving, critical reading ability, sensitivity to cultural differences, open-mindedness, deductive reasoning, and exceptional communication and organizational ability.
