1 DEPARTMENT OF ART BA AND BFA PROGRAM GUIDE (208)

2 DEPARTMENT OF ART Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Fine Arts degrees The primary aim of the art program is to develop the aesthetic awareness and technical proficiency of the individual student in the visual arts. The student who declares an art major can earn either the Bachelor of Arts degree or the Bachelor of Fine Arts degree. The B.F.A. is strongly recommended for those students who plan to pursue graduate work in the visual arts or who intend to enter into studio artist production. The studio areas offered for concentration are drawing, painting, printmaking, sculpture, fiber media, ceramics and metals/jewelry. Additionally, papermaking and special topics courses are available. The art major may concentrate in one studio area or work in several areas. In addition, the program offers a variety of studio and art history courses for university students majoring in other fields. Art Majors (B.A. and B.F.A.) and Art Minors must fulfill general education Objective 4 with courses outside the department. 36 of the credits earned toward graduation must be in upper division courses (3300 or 4400 numbers) and sixteen of these must be in your major.
