Do you mean a Renaissance Studies program? Well, are you as interested in the literature, music, and political/cultural/social history as you are in the art?
I tend not to think highly of "studies" majors, because you don't get a solid, in-depth grounding in the methods, theory, and criticism of any one field. I was an art history major who took a lot of courses in Italian history, literature, etc. outside of my major, and art history teaches you a great deal about history, politics, and socio-cultural issues anyway. I hold a PhD in art history, and I've spent years studying Renaissance/Baroque history and literature in connection with my art-historical work.
However, since you'd be majoring in Renaissance studies out of sheer interest, and not with the goal of eventually earning a doctorate in that field, then go ahead and select it if art history alone doesn't seem to offer as much study of the Renaissance as you'd like.
Can you actually major in Immunology as an undergraduate? Isn't that normally a graduate level/medical school field?
