HAVC Minor

The history of art and visual culture (HAVC) minor is flexible and compliments other programs offered at UC Santa Cruz very well. Many students choose to combine HAVC with other major/minor programs including (but certainly not limited to) anthropology, art, business management economics, classical studies, critical race and ethnic studies, education, history, legal studies, literature, politics, psychology, and sociology.
