MICA provides both a bachelor's degree program in art history, design, and visual culture studies, along with an art history minor option. The program structure combines scholarly studies with hands-on studio work, where studio classes make up nearly 50% of the major's credit requirements. Students are particularly advised to focus their studio electives on a specific artistic discipline.
Throughout this four-year degree, students divide their time equally between academic studies and studio practice. The BFA in Art History, Design, and Visual Culture at MICA enhances students' creative skills while giving them valuable insights into artistic processes that enrich their historical research.
This program features one of the most comprehensive liberal arts curricula among art institutions, offering a wider selection of history courses than many university art history departments, giving students exceptional academic opportunities.
