Fine Arts

B.F.A. in Fine Arts - 129 credits

The Bachelor of Fine Arts degree is an intensive studio art program for students who wish to become professional artists and/or pursue graduate study. Art Foundations are required of all Freshmen in the program, where concepts and practices in two- and three-dimensional art forms are examined. Studios in painting, drawing, sculpture, and printmaking provide students with an in-depth exploration of those media. Art history and theory are a fundamental part of the program. Students focus their interests in one or more of the studio arts in their junior year, and work with a faculty advisor in their senior year leading to a required B.F.A. exhibition of selected works. For more information contact Professor Seung Lee.
