Overview of Program

A CSB/SJU art degree is intended to prepare students for careers or further education in art. For the non-major, this education provides a preliminary understanding of art forms, the creative process and a beginning ability to employ critical analysis.

• You begin your journey by choosing a concentration in studio art and/or a major in studio art with a minor in art education.
• We stress both a historical view of art as well as a cross-cultural approach to learning about the diversity of art forms.
• We encourage our seniors to pursue internships, independent learning projects and a final thesis project.
