The BA Art, Concentration in Studio Practice is a degree for artists who wish to chart their own path. This could include a broad-based approach to artistic media or a focus on a single medium; the contemporary art world embraces both these ways of working. Artists who put more emphasis on the communication of ideas and who wish to try everything may opt to take classes ranging from painting, to video art, to glassblowing, to photography, to woodworking. Others may desire to specialize in jeweler and metalsmithing, or drawing and printmaking, for example. The BA Art, Concentration in Studio Practice allows students to tailor their own degree to meet precisely their artistic interests, while progressing through a rigorous core of theoretical seminars and art history lecture classes that will inform their work in any medium. The degree puts an emphasis on entrepreneurship and the ability to fit into a variety of creative career prospects.
