Study and courses in art and design can help you develop an appreciation for the visual arts as well as expand your expertise and understanding in an extremely varied and entrepreneurial field. You will study art theory and history, and work directly with a varied media in a studio environment in coursework such as design and photography (through our Graphic Design Department, see that page for details,) drawing, painting, ceramics, and sculpture. Also, of great importance will be building your portfolio that represents all of your work prior to transfer.
