Does anyone know what kind of jobs art historians can get?

Question

I know some work as professors and some work in museums, but what other jobs are out there?

Answer 1

Museum curator -- a Masters in Library Science would help too.

Answer 2

Any position will depend upon your field of study. National, state, and sometimes local governments will have positions suitable for historians.

Two choices available at the national level would be the FBI and CIA. Both organizations need historians for research and analysis.

For state historians, go to your local state employment office and see what type of jobs are available that you feel would need your skills as a historian.

Good luck!

Answer 3

Maybe a library because there are alot of history books and maybe you could get a job at a museum.

Answer 4

art historians can often find employment in retail and fast food.

unless you've got a PHD in art history, dont expect to walk into a job in a museum.

often, people with art degrees or art history degrees are drawn towards teaching art, either in highschools, or as TAs in a university.

Answer 5

you could probably go into research or something analyzing paintings of a certain period? Checking if somethign is real or fake? Or which period or movement a painting belongs in?

Answer 6

Archeologist or teacher

Answer 7

a waitress
