- Ancient Mediterranean
- Medieval, Renaissance, and Baroque Europe
- Modern and contemporary art and architecture (in Europe, the United States, Africa, or the African Diaspora)
- Africa, Islam, Asia, and the ancient Americas
- Either ARTVIS 111 or 112, Foundations in Art Practices. If taken before Fall 2014, one Visual Arts course can fulfill this requirement.

Minors are encouraged to take one or both semesters of the introductory survey course, ARTHIST 101 and ARTHIST 102, at four credit hours each. Both may count toward the minor, but neither fulfills the division requirement.
An internship (ARTHIST 397) cannot be applied to the minor. No more than four credit hours taken S/U (with the department’s approval) may be applied to the minor.
