Visual Arts with a Concentration in Studio Art (B.A.)

Art Reflects the Human History of the World

The visual language of art is the most ancient, cross-cultural, and instinctual method of communication, predating writing by thousands of years.

The B.A. program with a concentration in Studio Art combines a study of art history with dynamic and rigorous hands-on production experience in media ranging from drawing, painting, sculpture, and ceramics. Courses are designed to develop an appreciation for the history and artistry of these media, the skills to produce professional quality of creative work, and the ability to critique effectively one’s own work and the work of others. Graduates emerge from this program with solid theoretical, critical and practical skills to prepare them for post-graduate work or entry into the broad, exciting and ever-evolving arts job market.
