The University of Alaska Fairbanks offers a BFA in Painting that serves as a cornerstone of our studio arts curriculum, allowing undergraduates to specialize in this artistic field. Participants in the program build essential technical abilities across various mediums including acrylics, oils, encaustics, watercolors, and mixed media. The curriculum equally prioritizes helping students cultivate their unique artistic perspectives while honing their critical thinking and conceptual skills to effectively articulate their vision to fellow artists and broader audiences. The program concludes with a thesis exhibition showcasing each student's work, complemented by a written thesis that contextualizes and reinforces the creative concepts explored throughout their exhibition pieces.
