Choosing a Great Art History School for Your Doctor's Degree

Your choice of art history for getting your doctor's degree school matters. Important measures of a quality art history program can vary widely even among the top schools. Below we explain some of the most important factors to consider before making your choice:

Overall Quality Is a Must

A school that excels in educating for a particular major and degree level must be a great school overall as well. To account for this we include a college's overall Best Colleges for a Doctor's Degree ranking which itself looks at a collection of different factors like degree completion, educational resources, student body caliber and post-graduation earnings for the school as a whole.

Other Factors We Consider

The metrics below are just some of the other metrics that we use to determine our rankings.

• Major Focus - How much a school focuses on art history students vs. other majors.
• Major Demand - How many other art history students want to attend this school to pursue a doctor's degree.
• Educational Resources - How many resources are allocated to students. These resources may include educational expenditures per student, number of students per instructor, and graduation rate among other things.
• Accreditation - Whether a school is regionally accredited and/or accredited by a recognized art history related body.

Our full ranking methodology documents in more detail how we consider these factors to identify the best colleges for art history students working on their doctor's degree.

Insufficient Data for California

Sad to say, we do not have adequate facts to produce a ranking of the quality colleges for art history in California. This is typically due to there not being enough schools in California that both offer art history and provided enough information for us to do a proper analysis.
