Course of Study 

BA in Art: Studio Art

The Studio Art curriculum is designed to prepare students to function in a variety of artistic roles. This degree is a NASAD accredited degree totaling 120 credits for the university general degree requirements within the context of a liberal arts college. 54 credits are dedicated to the studio art field and can be taken in a number of disciplines including, printmaking, photography, digital arts, animation, painting, drawing and sculpture. In the final year of study students will create an individual body of work that culminates with a finished exhibition to be shown in our on-campus gallery.

Degree Requirements
BA in Art: Art History

Art history is an interdisciplinary field that investigates art as part of history and the larger cultural, socio-economic, and political context in which it was produced. Studying art history prepares you for a range of professions in art education, publishing, and the museum and gallery worlds. The curriculum is designed to train you in visual literacy and help you become an independent, creative thinker. It emphasizes experiential learning by offering courses featuring hands-on activities and real-world projects, and by facilitating internship opportunities that will make you a stronger candidate in the job market. This degree is accredited by the National Association of Schools of Art and Design.
