Studio Art

Description
The concentration in studio art includes foundation art courses that address formal issues in art and upper division courses that develop a conceptual basis for the student while increasing technical proficiency in one or more studio areas. Coursework in art history, both lower and upper division, helps foster critical understanding of aesthetics and the production of art. The designated coursework is flexible enough for students to concentrate in a single area of the studio arts or explore several mediums

Requirements

• Students must complete a minimum of 21 credit hours including 12 of upper division hours for this concentration.
• All courses must be completed with a grade of “C” (2.00) or higher.
• Students need to be aware of lower-division prerequisites for all upper-division courses.
• Students should consult a Herberger Institute for Design and the Arts academic advisor to ensure that an appropriate set of courses is taken.
