The traditional art tract focuses on a small core of courses which are well-rounded, but begins students on a path to a studio emphasis. The option focuses on the realms of painting, drawing, photography, sculpture, and ceramics. A well-rounded core touches every facet of the world of art, but then becomes intently focused within the disciplines.
Exploration and research courses are included to bet-ter prepare students for graduate school and life as a studio artist.
The computer graphics tract takes a unique approach to cross-discipline course work and ties traditional art studio classes to state-of-the-art computer program-ming and software. Course work includes traditional art classes, computer lab work, and computer program-ming. This degree is designed for students who wish WRIRFXVWKHLUHQHUJLHVLQDJURZLQJ¿HOGRIFRPSXWHU
