History of Art

The Hungarian Institute of History of Cluj ensures the most multi-faceted offerings at the University. It offers seven basic curricula (History, Archeology, Art History, International Relations, Archival Studies, Cultural Tourism, Library and Information Science). With one exception these Hungarian-language curricula are offered nowhere else in Romania. In addition to the institute’s colleagues, the availability of visiting professors, as well as our participation in various exchange programs, contributes to the high standard of our curricula.  

Students can learn the following in the program: art historical morphology, the art of Gothic and Renaissance, architecture of Transylvania during the Principality era, modern artistic styles, applied arts. 

Prospective job roles: art historian, museum curator, heritage conservation specialist, art brokerage consultant, teacher, cultural and tourism program coordinator.
