Welcome to the Department of Fine Arts website. If you are considering a career in the fine arts— either as a studio artist, in some related field, or would like to pursue a course of study that will eventually qualify you to teach in a university art department — we believe you've come to the right place. The Fine Arts Department is the visual art program that emphasizes the importance of actually making art.

As a fine arts major working toward a BFA degree, you will have the opportunity to work extensively in the studio alongside well regarded professional artists. You will learn the basics of design, color, and media in your foundation and introductory level courses. As you advance in the program, you will specialize in one of five major studio concentration areas: drawing, digital media, painting, photography, printmaking, or sculpture.
