Thinking about graduate school in the arts?


CAA has published new editions of Graduate Programs in Art History and Graduate Programs in the Visual Arts, directories of 650 graduate programs in six countries. Graduate Programs in Art History covers the following four program types: History of Art and Architecture, Arts Administration, Curatorial and Museum Studies, and Library Science. Graduate Programs in the Visual Arts comprises Studio Art and Design, Art Education, Film Production, and Conservation and Historic Preservation.


The comprehensive directories provide vital information to prospective graduate students and also serve as key professional references for career-services representatives, department chairs, graduate and undergraduate advisors, librarians, and professional-practices educators. Readers can draw important conclusions from these facts, such as the competitiveness of a program based on the number of applications received and accepted. To give you a better sense of the content, look at these three sample entries.



Organized alphabetically by school name within each program type, entries describe:
   Curricula
   Class size
   Faculty and specializations
   Degree requirements
   Library and studio facilities
   Opportunities for fellowships, assistantships, and financial aid
   Availability of health insurance

The directories are available in the following digital and print formats:
   Four-program print volumes, Graduate Programs in Art History and Graduate Programs in the Visual Arts
   Downloadable PDFs of individual entries
   Ebooks of individual program types
   Individual print volumes of the following six program types: History of Art and Architecture, Studio Art and Design, Art Education, Arts Administration, Curatorial and Museum Studies, and Film Production

For more details and to order the directories, visit the CAA website. If you have any questions, please contact Roberta Lawson at 212 392 4404.
