The Art History Program at Pepperdine prepares students for the global, connected, and dynamic world of the 21st century. Our art history curriculum includes courses on the arts of Europe, Asia, the Middle East, Latin America, and more, spanning prehistoric through present periods. Seminars and upper-division courses deepen students’ research skills and methodological training in their areas of interest. By examining works of art from multiple perspectives, students develop an appreciation for diverse cultures and the vital role that art plays in human expression across time and space.
