If you are an aspiring artist or are interested in teaching art, you're in the right place. Choose from the B.A. in Fine Art or the B.F.A. in Art, both based on a preliminary common core of art courses, followed by the option of concentrating in either drawing/ painting or photography, or pursuing a more varied approach in several media. Studio concentrations allow you to explore techniques and develop style and discipline while studying closely with our gifted professors, many of whom have exhibited their works world-wide. If you prefer to explore additional electives while majoring in Studio Art, choose the B.A. program.

If you are interested in pursuing a career in commercial art, you should elect the B.F.A. in Art with a concentration in Graphic Design. This option explores every aspect of the field from the history of design to print production, computer graphics, photography and typography giving you a broad base of knowledge for greater career flexibility.

Our B.F.A. in Art with a concentration in Photography offers you the option of focusing your studies on the field of photography, with strong creative and technical experiences in the studio as well as a wide variety of internships.
