Studio Art Major

Description

The studio art major is designed to provide a well-rounded art experience, encompassing two-dimensional and three-dimensional media, art history courses, and a concentration (four levels) in one area. Students majoring in art are encouraged to expand their understanding of art as it relates to other disciplines, cultures, and global concerns. BS/BA Studio majors may also take DCE 323 Career Explorations in Art, in which they may receive credit for apprenticeships or internships in artists studios, galleries or alternative spaces.
