Concentrations for the BA Degree
After completing the foundations, students majoring in studio art for the BA degree take courses selected from the studio art media concentration course lists. Students who complete a minimum of twelve (12) semester hours (or eighteen [18] semester hours in graphic design) with a concentration in a media area have that area listed as their media concentration on their record by the Department of Art. For example, a degree under this system might be BA in studio art: concentration in painting.
Art majors who do not complete a concentration may choose an interdisciplinary concentration with permission from the department. Students should consult the Department of Art for specific information concerning the various concentrations.
The requirements for entrance into the BA program are currently being reviewed. Entering students should contact the department for specific details regarding requirements.
