DEGREE PROGRAMS
DERPARTMENT OF ART
The Bachelor of Arts degree provides a liberal arts-fine arts education, allowing students to pursue their art interest without the additional demands and course work required by the professional BFA degree options. The BA with an art history emphasis is a suitable beginning for a student planning to work toward an advanced degree in art history.
The Bachelor of Fine Arts degree programs are designed to prepare students for professional careers as a classroom art teacher, graphic designer, or studio artist. The BFA with emphasis in Studio Art, Graphic Design, or Art Education is the initial professional degree, and it is the requisite degree for the student who plans to pursue a studio-oriented post baccalaureate degree.
The Bachelor of Science in Digital Media and Design is a multi-disciplinary degree featuring courses in the College of Communications and the College of Fine Arts. The program provides an opportunity for students to gain a combination of knowledge and skills in content, design and production that will allow them to compete regionally and globally. Students are required to take courses in Communications and in Fine Arts while having the opportunity to select elective courses reflecting their special interests. Individuals interested in the program should contact either the Department of Art or the Department of Radio-Television for additional information.
