What Northern’s strengths in art history?
Northern’s art history curriculum presents particular strengths. It includes several courses in non-Western art, such as Japanese and Native American, that are not a common part of the curriculum elsewhere. In addition, the required core survey is global in scope. The curriculum also includes one of the few courses in integrated design history (graphic, product, furniture) in the State. These specialized courses will be appealing if you want a major with a focus on non-Western, modern and applied arts (functional arts, often developed in business contexts).
