Welcome to the Art Program
The Art Program offers a wide range of courses, which enable students to become emerging artists with skills in diverse materials and capable of expressing an individual view.
Studio course offerings include:
- Ceramics
- Drawing
- Design
- Digital imaging
- Painting
- Printmaking
- Photography
- Sculpture
Capacity for heightened perception and imagination is combined with an awareness of visual elements, principles of design, artistic statement and criticism.
Classes in art history treat art objects as historical documents related in subject, style, technique and material to other works of art and interpret their context and purpose. Courses range from contemporary international and regional artistic expressions to those of ancient America, Africa, and Asia.
Individualized instruction and advisement are offered by dedicated faculty who not only teach, but are producing and exhibiting artists and publishing scholars.
The undergraduate major offers a broad intellectual background sought by professional schools, cultural institutions and the business community. With the expanding use of the arts in contemporary life and the heightened visual awareness of our society, the employment outlook for Art majors continues to be promising.
