The Department of Art and Art Professions is part of the New York University School of Education, which is currently called
the Steinhardt School of Culture, Education, and Human Development. The School was founded in 1890 as the School of Pedagogy,
renamed the School of Education in 1921, and was called the School of Education, Health, Nursing, and Arts Professions (SEHNAP)
from 1974 to 1994.
At the beginning of the period represented by this collection, the School of Education's Art courses were taught within Art
Education, a program that focused on the training of teachers, supervisors, and directors of art education in elementary and
secondary schools. By the 1990's, the renamed Department of Art and Art Professions had expanded to offer majors in Studio
Art, Arts Education, Art Therapy, and Arts Administration, offering a PhD in Arts and Humanities or Art Education. The current
focus of the program is interdisciplinary, providing theoretical and historical training in visual culture to support art
administrators, educators, and scholars.
In the 1940's, PhD candidates in the department of Art Education spent at least one year working on what was then referred
to as a thesis. By the 1990's, students in Art and Arts Professions produced dissertations as part of their PhD requirements.
This collection contains dissertations and theses on a broad range of topics pertaining to art history, education and theory
across diverse geographical and historical categories. Many of the theses/dissertations are bound, and some are in multiple
volumes.
There is no information about materials that are associated by provenance to the described materials that have been physically
separated or removed.
Material pertaining to individual student records may be restricted in accordance with the Family Educational Rights and Privacy
Act (FERPA). Please contact the Archives with specific questions regarding access to such records.
The Art and Arts Professions dissertations were transferred to the New York University Archives by the Department of Art and
Arts Professions in 1997.
