Bachelor's Degree
The Bachelor of Fine Arts (B.F.A.) is a specialized undergraduate program offering seven focus areas: ceramics, drawing, graphic design, painting, photography, printmaking, or sculpture (3D studies). This program prepares students for artistic careers or advanced studies like an MFA degree.
Fine arts students explore artistic evolution across cultures from ancient times to today. They also develop analytical abilities to assess design principles, creative processes, and theoretical frameworks in studio art practice. As a capstone requirement, students present a solo exhibition of their original work for faculty evaluation.
