Elizabeth Burns-Dans spent much of her childhood gazing at the masterpieces housed in art galleries across the country.

Having completed her Master of Philosophy in Art History at Notre Dame, Elizabeth now hopes to delve deeper into the rich artistry of the Renaissance and Medieval periods through her PhD.

“I went to Spain on an Experience the World history tour with Notre Dame which was incredible,” Elizabeth said. “I’d never been to Spain before and my experience there definitely influenced my decision to do my Masters degree.”

“I’ve had a really great experience with Notre Dame and couldn’t think of any reason to leave!”
