The Osprey Map provides a term-by-term sample schedule for each undergraduate academic program at the 海角社区. It is designed to guide students in the selection of courses each term. The "Mile Marker" courses are those courses that should be completed before or by the end of that term. Following the sample schedule, and completing the mile marker courses at the appropriate point of your undergraduate career, will facilitate graduation in four years. The term-by-term model assumes full-time enrollment. For students enrolled part-time, the sample schedule and mile markers should be followed based on the number of credits completed. The Osprey Map should be used in consultation with an academic advisor.
The B.A. in Art History offers courses in a variety of subject areas including Ancient, Medieval, Renaissance, Baroque, Modern European, American, Non-Western and Contemporary. Upon completion of the Art History program students have extensive knowledge of major artists and artworks in various art historical periods, and develop adequate research skills to continue with Art History studies, pursuing a Master's degree or a Ph.D. Visit the Art History webpage for more information.

- Review the university catalog for a list of General Education requirements. An Associate in Arts (AA) degree from a Florida public university, state college or community college satisfies 海角社区general education and Gordon Rule requirements. Math selection is contingent upon appropriate placement score, the student's major and credit received through accelerated mechanisms (Advanced Placement, International Baccalaureate, Dual Enrollment, etc).
- Art History students must complete one course in each of the following five areas: Ancient or Medieval Art History; Renaissance or Baroque Art History; American Art History; Modern Art History; and Non-Western Art History for a total of five courses.

- Independent study courses require prior approval of the department chairperson.
- Department of Art and Design first day attendance rule: any student absent the first day without advanced notice to a department representative will be administratively dropped from the course.
- A minor is required for this degree. The minor must be selected from the list of approved minors in the undergraduate catalog. The Department of Art and Design maintains a list of recommended minors that complement the Art History major, including the minor in foreign language. Students should consult an Art History faculty member to select a minor. Minors are generally completed during the last 60 hrs of your program. Your minor may require prerequisites, so choosing one early is beneficial. See your professional academic advisor to declare a minor. Double majors are exempt from a minor.
