You may ask your advisor to assist you in identifying and applying for study abroad programs, internships, research grants, and scholarships.

Minors

Minors in Art & Art History do not need to have an Art & Art History advisor. To declare your minor, complete the Declaration of Academic Minor [pdf] form and have it signed by the Chair of Art & Art History before you return it to the Registrar's Office. If you have questions, feel free to approach one of your professors for advice.
