Art
Option to Liberal Arts, (AA.ART)
The A.A. Art program provides students with both a
broad-based liberal arts education and a strong foundation
in the visual arts. Art students learn technical skills and the
basic principles of drawing, design, and color. Students
may also elect courses in painting, sculpture, ceramics,
photography, art history, and an introduction to computer
graphics. Students develop competency in studio arts,
an appreciation of the role of visual art in society,
and an understanding of the works of past and present
major artists.
This transfer program is designed for students interested
in a career in the arts but not necessarily as working artists.
Many career opportunities in the arts require a broad liberal
arts education along with studio competency. Some of
these professions include: art conservation, museum studies,
and curatorial studies.
Graduates of this program should be able to:
Demonstrate proficiency in the basic materials and
techniques of drawing, design and color theory;
Demonstrate effective oral and written communication
skills;
Demonstrate an understanding of the style and
significance of major art works from the past;
Discuss and analyze major issues facing the art
world today;
Apply an understanding of the basic elements of
design involved in analyzing and critiquing works of art;
Demonstrate an understanding of how to select,
prepare describe and exhibit arts works for exhibition.
