Art students at USU enjoy a vast array of opportunities. Every specialization includes rigorous coursework that fosters personal artistic expression while grounding students in historical art traditions. Faculty members are both accomplished artists and skilled educators, committed to providing personalized guidance. The Art Department maintains selective admissions through portfolio review, ensuring small class sizes for more one-on-one faculty interaction. Students can showcase their work through faculty-guided group and solo exhibitions.
With the most study abroad offerings on campus, the department enables annual international study in destinations like Switzerland, Korea, Scotland, and Germany. The program regularly welcomes guest artists from around the globe.
The BFA represents a professional qualification demanding exceptional artistic achievement, requiring admission to a specific concentration. BS candidates pursue a broader art education without specialization, while BA students must demonstrate foreign language proficiency alongside their art studies.
