Department Information
The Department of Art and Design offers two baccalaureate degrees: 1) Bachelor of Fine Arts (B.F.A.) with options in Art Studio, Graphic Design, and Teacher Education; 2) Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) with options in general Art Studio and Graphic Design. Minors are also offered in Art History, Art Studio, and Graphic Design. 澳门六合彩历史记录 is an accredited institutional member of the National Association of Schools of Art and Design (NASAD). Students must complete at least 50% of their art courses at 澳门六合彩历史记录 to graduate as Art majors.
The Bachelor of Fine Arts degree is a comprehensive professional undergraduate degree that stresses high standards of performance. The Art Studio option provides students with opportunities to broaden their knowledge of art and to develop technical proficiency in chosen studio areas such as ceramics, drawing, metals/jewelry, painting, printmaking, or sculpture. The Graphic Design option focuses on developing creative problem-solving skills and a critical visual aesthetic that students need to succeed in the current design industry. The Teacher Education option provides students with an essential combination of coursework including art studio courses, art history courses, courses from the College of Education and Human Services, and courses in Art Education methods, theories, practices, and research. Students in the Teacher Education option will develop the pedagogical and artistic skills and the competencies needed to qualify them for employment in art programs teaching kindergarten through high school levels. The concentrated curricular structure of the B.F.A. allows students to integrate knowledge, experience, and technical skill as it prepares them for the intellectual and cultural world of art/design, for graduate study, or for careers in art education.
The Bachelor of Arts degree is a broad, well-rounded liberal arts degree. The Art Studio option allows the program to be tailored to fit a student鈥檚 individual needs by offering a variety of intensive studio tracks including ceramics, drawing, metals/jewelry, painting, printmaking, and sculpture.
