The BA in Art 工作室实践 concentration allows students to pursue a general study in the visual arts, or to create their own curriculum combining studies in visual 艺术与其他领域. For students preferring a broad art background instead of an intense specialization, this program provides students with a variety of art experiences.

Students enrolled in the 工作室实践 concentration are not necessarily preparing for a career in art or design, although many use the program as preparation for graduate 水平的研究. The required studio work is intended to intensify awareness of visual art forms and introduce a variety of technical processes and theoretical approaches. Concentrations and emphases are designed to offer opportunities to study digital media art, photography, pictorial art and spatial art. 工作室实践 also provides a basic program leading to a teaching credential in art.

Admission to the BA programs is open to all University students.

In addition to general education (GE) coursework, the BA degree in Art, 工作室实践 Concentration requires coursework in core courses that constitute a general preparation for the major, concentration, or emphasis.
