Bachelor of Arts in Creative Arts (Interdepartmental)
Program Overview
The Creative Arts Program at SJSU is the only one of its kind in the CSU System. Founded in 1956, this unique and well-established Program places emphasis on the interdisciplinary exploration of the arts, the creative process, creativity and creative leadership, the relevance of the arts to different societies and cultures, and especially the role of the arts in societal change and social justice. Because of its interdisciplinary and self-designed approach, no two students take the same program of study. This flexibility allows students the opportunity to think across artistic disciplines and to produce strong academic and creative work in the history, theory, and practice of at least two areas in the arts (music, dance, drama, film, broadcast media, digital and new media, visual arts, creative writing, poetry, and literature). This innovative Program specializes in providing highly individualized advising that helps students achieve their goals and graduate on time.
As of Fall 2021, the Creative Arts BA has a new required course, HUM 95 Introduction to Digital Humanities, which will provide students with an additional skillset to apply to their studies in Creative Arts and to take with them in their future careers. Such skills are highly prized in tech and higher education, for example.
The Creative Arts Program aims to produce effective critical thinkers, cultural philosophers, and creative leaders and problem-solvers. It provides a breadth of knowledge and depth of understanding in the arts that prepare students for a wide variety of graduate and professional degree programs as well as rewarding careers. Recent graduates have developed careers as visual and artist-activists, performing artists, arts administrators, curators, teachers (K-8 and higher ed.), software developers and engineers, costume/fashion designers, multimedia designers, arts therapists, occupational therapists, librarians, lawyers, business-owners, and entrepreneurs.
