Visual Literacy (Minor)

The development of a critical approach to visual culture is essential in a contemporary world permeated by images. The Minor in Visual Literacy, by integrating courses in art history, communications, and psychology, provides students with the skills necessary to closely analyze both the history of image circulation and how those images influence our behavior. The majority of these courses will have a Project-Based Learning component, incorporating hands-on work with images and out-of-classroom experiences.
