The Department of Art History of the University of Ljubljana offers single major and double major programmes of study, which involve Art History as a major subject, plus Art History education in combination with another subject which is closely connected to the study of History and available within the Faculty of Arts.

The Department of Art History is divided into three chairs: the Chair of Slovene Art and Art of other South Slavic Peoples; the Chair of Art in General; the Chair of Conservation and Museology.

Background

Art history studies at the Faculty of Arts were already planned at the beginning of preparations for the establishment of the University of Ljubljana at the end of World War I, in 1919. The establishment of this study was entrusted to one of the "fathers" of Art History in Slovenia, Izidor Cankar. Lectures were launched in the summer semester of 1920. After a small initial number of regular students, courses became more and more popular especially after World War Two. Students travelled through Slovenia and Yugoslavia, and even got involved in some work campaigns on historical buildings. France Stele led the fieldwork seminar until 1957, when he retired and left his place to Stane Mikuž. Mikuž initiated the first major extension of the section, and in the following decades the studies were divided in two chairs, the first covering the field of European art history, the second Slovene and Yugoslav art history.

The renewal of the programme itself began already in the 1990s, thus providing a greater choice of seminars. The latest set of changes is linked to the Bologna reform, with the scheme 3+2 and term lectures. The renewed programme was implemented in the 2008/09 academic year.

The Department of Art History also regularly carries out a programme of courses/lectures for primary and secondary school teachers of Art History.

Research programmes

The teaching staff organise and implement various research projects in the fields of Art History, and cooperate in some interdisciplinary programmes and projects organised by the Science Research Institute of the Faculty of Arts and by the Ministry of Education, Science and Sport.

International cooperation

Within Slovenia and abroad, strong and regular cooperation has been established with numerous museums, galleries, scientific institutes and others on different levels. Individual teachers are involved in international research/scientific associations and projects. Members of the department have also organised a number of international congresses, conferences, and other events.

In 2017 it started participating, together with the Institute for the Protection of Cultural Heritage of Slovenia, Maribor Regional Office, in a multi-year Creative Europe project called Tracing the Art of the Straub Family. Together with partners from Croatia, Germany and Austria they formed a research consortium that explores the legacy of a prolific family of baroque artists who lived and worked in Slovenia, Croatia, Austria, and Germany.

+== Background ==
-Art history studies at the Faculty of Arts were already planned at the beginning of preparations for the establishment of the University of Ljubljana at the end of World War I, in 1919. The establishment of this study was entrusted to one of the “fathers” of Art History in Slovenia, Izidor Cankar. Lectures were launched in 1920, but were poorly attended until World War II, when access to courses increased significantly. There were already 50 seminar attendants after the war, which travelled trough Slovenia and Yugoslavia, and even got involved in some work campaigns, related to some endangered art historical sites. France Stele led the fieldwork seminar until 1957, when he retired and left his place to Stane Mikuž. Mikuž initiated first major extension of the section, and in the following decades the studies were divided in two chairs, the first covering the field of European art history, the second Slovenian and Yugoslav history. In 1993 the department moved to the southern tract of the third floor of Faculty of Arts.
-The renewal of the program itself was started already in the nineties of 20th century, which provided a greater choice of seminars. Although some Department teacheres still adhered to the positivistic legacy of the preceding decades, especially some younger generations of lecturers adopted new viewpoints. The latest set of changes is linked to the Bologna reform, with the scheme 3+2 and term lectures. The renewed program began to be implemented following serious disputes, in 2008/2009, which is relatively late if compared to some other Faculty of Arts departments.

-== Programme / Mission ==
+The renewal of the programme itself began already in the 1990s, thus providing a greater choice of seminars. The latest set of changes is linked to the Bologna reform, with the scheme 3+2 and term lectures. The renewed programme was implemented in the 2008/09 academic year.
-[[Department of Art History, University of Ljubljana| Department of Art History]] is devided in three chairs: ''Chair of Slovene Art and Art of other South Slavic Peoples''; ''Chair of European Art''; ''Chair of Conservation and Museology''.
-Study programs in Art History are ''Single-Major'', non-pedagogic orientation (title: BA, Art Historian) and ''Double-Major'', pedagogic orientation (title: BA, Teacher of Art History). According to Bologna reform there are three levels of study: Single-major and double-major '''undergraduate university studies''' of Art History; '''postgraduate studies''' of Art History (medieval, modern and protection of monuments); and '''Doctoral studies''' of Art History (medieval, modern and protection of monuments). As a double-major program, Art History can be studied in combination with almost any other program offered at the Faculty of Arts in Ljubljana, and (on the basis of established contracts) with some programs of other faculties.
+The Department of Art History also regularly carries out a programme of courses/lectures for primary and secondary school teachers of Art History.
-In the first two years the programme consists of introductory courses (general, Slovene Art, Iconography) as well as surveys of European Art (medieval, modern), Slovene Art (medieval, modern) and the Art of Ancient Cultures. In the third and fourth years the programme focuses on seminars and special courses.
+== Research programmes ==
-The aim of all four programs is to qualify students for responsible professional work in different fields that involve Art History (museums, institutes for protection of the cultural heritage). The pedagogic orientation includes subjects and practical work which qualify students for teaching Art History in primary and secondary schools (Art History-teaching methodology, pedagogic skills, psychology, etc.).
+The teaching staff organise and implement various research projects in the fields of Art History, and cooperate in some interdisciplinary programmes and projects organised by the Science Research Institute of the [[Faculty of Arts, University of Ljubljana|Faculty of Arts]] and by the [[Ministry of Education, Science and Sport]].
