BA in Studio Art

The Department of Studio Art and Art History is committed to providing a rich environment of interdisciplinary learning and exploration in which the student will develop a sound foundation of knowledge and a wealth of experience in the visual arts. The art studio courses, art history lectures and seminars, and the University gallery programs provide the context for the curricula in two majors, Studio Art and Art History. The major in studio art gives the student a background in the fundamentals of the formal, technical, and theoretical concerns of the artist from both historical and contemporary perspectives.
