Art

Hone your creative thinking skills and work on your visual expression through a series of studio courses starting with foundations of drawing and design. Work toward exhibiting in the senior art show at the Olin Fine Art Gallery to complete the program.

Get prepared to teach art in a classroom setting while enhancing your personal creative and artistic abilities. You’ll have the opportunity to seek specialty education certification in art by completing the art education major and an education minor.

Build an individualized curriculum around a particular theme and explore interrelationships between academic disciplines with a Thematic Major. Study across two or more departments or programs to pursue an academic discipline that is not necessarily available in the traditional educational scheme.

Build experience in cultural preservation built on chemistry, art, and art history in this minor. Explore your interests in fields of cultural preservation, library science, art history, and materials science through the study of Art Conservation.

Learn historical and contemporary art movements, and familiarize yourself with art, artists, and aesthetics and an understanding of the artistic process. Through the Art History program, you’ll analyze visual art and artists in relation to the issues of their time and how it relates to our world today.
