Description
This program will provide an option for students who are interested in pursuing an associate degree in the Visual Arts with a goal of transferring to a baccalaureate institution. This program will provide a strong foundation in art while offering opportunities to pursue areas of particular interest (drawing, painting, ceramics, photography, graphic design and mixed media). Students may select courses from an area of interest (drawing, painting, ceramics, photography, graphic design, mixed media) or may elect courses in a variety of studio areas. Potential post-transfer careers include textile and fashion design, interior design, product and industrial design, museum and gallery work, art restoration, arts administration, art therapy, display design, motion graphics and animation, graphic design for print, web and other applications, photography and studio art. This degree will satisfy the state-mandated General Education requirements and emphasizes the importance of liberal arts studies in preparation for the BA or BFA degree.
