These avenues of visual expression, as well as elective courses in graphic design, computer imaging, and technical illustration, will help to prepare you for a studio career or for specialized study in graduate school.

In the program’s studio and art history courses, you’ll also develop an appreciation for artistic expression in a variety of cultures and gain an important perspective concerning the role of the arts and artists in modern society.
