In the B.A. program at ÐÇ¿Õ´«Ã½, you’ll build a strong foundation in studio art and art history, then tailor your experience through upper-level electives that reflect your interests.
The curriculum encourages you to connect creative practice with historical and cultural
understanding, preparing you to think critically about art in a broader world context.
Students pursuing the B.A. choose a second major or a minor, along with foreign language study, creating opportunities to link art with other academic fields. For students who
want to complement another area of study, art is also available as a minor, offering focused coursework in studio and art history without completing the full
major.
Where You'll Go
Graduates pursue paths across the creative, cultural, and professional landscape.
Many work in galleries, museums, arts administration, and design-related fields, while others continue to graduate study in fine arts, art history, museum studies, or related disciplines.
The program’s interdisciplinary focus prepares you for roles that value creativity,
visual communication, research, and critical thinking—skills that translate to careers
in education, nonprofit organizations, media, and beyond.
The program is enhanced by the presence of the Fine Art Museum at ÐÇ¿Õ´«Ã½, which offers an exciting exhibition program, visiting artist series and the possibility
of student internships and courses in museum practices.
Our Art Major offers a dynamic, hands-on education in studio practice, visual thinking,
and creative problem-solving. Students develop technical skill, personal voice, and
a strong portfolio through close mentorship and interdisciplinary exploration.
Art students gain real-world experience through exhibitions, internships, and portfolio
development, preparing them for creative careers and graduate study.
The Art Minor allows students from any major to develop creative skills, explore studio
practice, and expand their visual thinking through hands-on coursework.
