Master of Fine Arts in Art

Program Overview

The Masters in Fine Arts in Studio Art is administered through the Division of Arts & Letters, and offers a concentrated multi-media studio focus on developing professional art makers.

The graduate program in fine art stresses intellectual curiosity, self-discipline, and technical proficiency in the art studio. With course work in painting, printmaking, photography, digital imaging, sculp­ture, graphic design or ceramics, the art studio student is directed to become a mature artist in command of multiple mediums that highlight expression of an individual artistic voice.

The graduate art program enables students either to become practicing artists or to achieve a level of scholarship that can help them to be both art scholars and professional educators. Trained innovators and creative thinkers, fine art majors find ever expanding use of their arts education in contempo­rary life. The employment and entrepreneurial outlook for artists continues to be strong.

Courses in art history support the research of the Fine Arts major and treat art objects as historical documents related in subject, style, technique, and material to other works of art. They further explore analysis through interpretation of their context and purpose. Art history courses range from contemporary international and regional artistic expressions to those of ancient America, Africa, and Asia.

Students are encouraged to develop perception and imagi­nation, combined with an awareness of visual elements, principles of design, artistic statement, and criticism. Professional display, public presentation, and sound research skills culminate in the thesis exhibit and written support document.
