UNDERGRADUATE

An image depicting work at the School of Art + Design.
The undergraduate program is eager to provide the brand of mentorship and support that will allow you to grow as an artist, a designer, an educator, or a historian but mostly as a thinker. Ultimately, our curriculum offers professional training for the self-sustaining artist/designer as well as preparation for the student planning to pursue an advanced degree in the arts.

To be an successful student, we see it as our responsibility to provide you with guidance to help you achieve your goals. In each class, you work closely with a faculty member to test your aesthetic vision, refine your technical, communicative, and evaluative skills.

Majors sit down with faculty members to choose elective courses within the School of Art + Design that best contribute to their future ambitions.

With the degree in hand, students have a broad range of professional options to consider, such as a public school teacher, curatorial researcher, an exhibiting artist, a conservator, a toy or exhibit designer, a photo stylist, a jewelry designer, or an artist in resident, etc. The list is long. Some of our students choose to matriculate to grad school as well, where they continue their training as professional artists and educators.
