The Major in Visual Arts aims to educate qualified, promising students in various aspects of creative activity and Art History. Studio Art students may concentrate in: Drawing, Painting, and Graphic Design.
Art History students may select from a range of course offerings to fulfill their professional interests. Students are expected to develop a personal direction that culminates for studio students in a professional exhibition of their work. The program in Art History culminates in a semester long independent research project and presentation.
The major in Visual Arts consists of a minimum of 10 courses. The requirements include the following:
• ART 101 Drawing I
This course is foundational for students who intend to cultivate the sort of seeing that is required to make and to understand visual expression. Working from observation and slides of master works this course will clarify the basic elements of visual experience.
• ART 122 History of Western Art I or ART 124 Art History Survey I, and ART 123 History of Western Art II
These courses offer a survey of Western Art from Ancient to Modern times. This is taught in a historical framework, but also gives the students the opportunity to examine a select number of works in closer detail. This strategy exposes students to the elements of visual language and helps them to develop critical skills, which can be used to develop further understanding of the visual arts.
