About the course

Department of Art introduced a redesigned B.F.A. curriculum for students who see themselves as both artists and scholars. This curriculum will combine the intensive studio culture of the art department with enhanced access to electives in all areas of the university. By focusing on interdisciplinary relationships, the department aims to produce a community of artists who will participate in the world as artistic and intellectual leaders. The program allows the student to map a highly individualized curriculum with the goal of evolving a mature artistic practice at the earliest possible stage. The two academic components of B.F.A. program consist of the art-specific component taught within the department (64 credits) and the elective component drawn from the university at large (56 credits). The art component consists of seminars and core studio courses in: Digital media, Drawing, Painting, Photography, Print media, Sculpture, And a wide range of special topics. Within the departmental curriculum, the first three semesters provide six introductory, medium-specific studio classes (drawing, painting, sculpture, photography, print media, and digital media) along with an intensive art seminar.

　　The pluralistic nature of printed matter allows us to explore a range of human experience in art, design, and science. Through a unique relationship to history, each age of print from the earliest examples until now is rooted in a reciprocal dimension of technology. The vision of a creative and material print experience is embedded in a vast array of public and private experiments through advances in technology. We embrace the potential of all analog and digital print processes in the production of singular, variable, and editioned works that may include prints, artists' publications, online projects, installation and digital/expanded drawing, and multiple form making. Sources for studying print-based work abound in the collections of the Herbert F. Johnson Museum of Art and Kroch Library, and opportunities for applying print in all media ? digital and analog ? are present across disciplines. Community is expressed through the collaborative and symbiotic print experience. Scholarships - View all scholarships Internships
