What will I learn?

The BA in Art is a liberal arts degree that familiarizes students with the rich tradition of the visual arts, provides them with an understanding of the tools and materials available to the artist as a means of personal expression, shows students that there are fundamental concepts which unify all art yet which allow for infinite variation, and introduces to them alternative ways of looking, seeing, finding, and discovering. While exploring a variety of media, learning the techniques and expressive opportunities unique to each, students have the opportunity to explore other interests throughout the university and are encouraged to incorporate those interest into their artistic production. Primary focus in the program is on students finding their own creative and conceptual voice, and discovering ways to visually communicate their thoughts and ideas.
