Most of our students are B.F.A. majors, giving them the greatest opportunity to develop strong portfolios before heading off to their next challenge after graduation. The B.F.A. program is specifically designed to ensure a balance of studio experiences across a range of areas, even in the junior and senior years. Unlike some programs where students can become isolated in their area of emphasis, our curriculum requires continued exploration of alternative approaches throughout all four years. In order to enter the B.F.A. program the student must submit a portfolio of 10 examples of their artwork. Currently, we use the portfolio review as a way of assessing student capabilities as they enter the program. This helps faculty identify strengths and weaknesses of incoming students. While it is necessary to submit a portfolio to declare or switch to the B.F.A. major, portfolio submission status will not keep students from enrolling in individual courses. However, submitting the portfolio as early as possible is the best way to ensure good, accurate academic advising. Students must complete 78 hours in art, at least 16 of which must be at the 300/400 level, with minimum grades of C. Drawing The Drawing Program consists of classes in the Art Core and the Drawing Track. The two classes in the Art Core are Drawing I and II. In Drawing I and II students learn the fundamentals of drawing and broader conceptual skills that will help students to be able to both draw from observation and to visualize things they wish to create in an artistic manner. Besides fundamental drawing skills in the core drawing classes students also learn composition and design. After having taken the drawing classes in the Art Core students in the Drawing Track must take four upper level drawing classes. In the upper level drawing classes student learn advanced monochromatic and polychromatic drawing techniques. Students develop their portfolios with thematic thesis projects. Students also develop conceptual skills by writing papers based on selected readings. The emphasis in the upper level drawing classes is on exploration, experimentation and personal expression in relation to contemporary art issues. Students who successfully complete the Drawing Track will be prepared to begin a career as a fine artist exhibiting in galleries and museums, an illustrator for print and other media, or to pursue further studies on the graduate level.
