Orientation Talk: Art History @HKU

Art History @HKU

Date: 18 August 2022 (Monday)
Time: 10:30am – 11:30am (HK time)
Venue: Online via zoom

Not everyone comes to university with a clear goal in mind, and even if you do, have you considered taking an art history course in your very first year, as a way to explore the world?

This online talk offers freshmen an introduction to the discipline of art history, the visual materials that we study as art historians, and the approaches that we use in research. A lot of first year students in the past were amazed by how much our introductory courses cover, in terms of both time periods and countries.

For those who may have already decided to take art history, this talk will also be helpful as it provides a clear structure of our 4 year curriculum, so that students know what to anticipate in the following years, and even after graduation.

The Q&A session at the end allow participants to ask more specific questions. We hope students are reassured and feel excited about starting a new journey with us.
