Studio Art

Print Degree Planner (opens a new window) |

The studio art minor includes a core of foundation courses that introduce students to the fundamental concerns of the art making process. Advanced level courses build upon this foundation and provide each student the opportunity to create individualized programs that reflect his/her interests. Through both practice and theory, developing artists refine their skills and techniques, expand their creative and imaginative capacity, and develop critical and analytical judgment.

Minor Requirements

Six (6) courses are required: Two (2) foundation courses, three (3) electives, and one (1) art history. One (1) of the required three
electives must be at the 300 level or higher. At least one of these electives must be an approved Digital Media course (see below for

Students declaring a studio minor should contact their advisor or the Art and Art History Department chair to discuss course
sequencing.
