Art and Art History

Major/Minor

For a complete listing of degree requirements for all Art majors, please consult the Art department website.

Visual art is a self-conscious response to life, the product of the individual creative process, and a human expression of thoughts, emotions, and values. Four options are available for students wishing to pursue a degree in art: Bachelor of Arts in Art, Bachelor of Arts in Art History, Bachelor of Arts in Art History/Art Studio, and Bachelor of Fine Arts.

  • The B.F.A. degree allows students to receive a certificate in graphic design or interior design after completing courses at Sinclair Community College.
  • Five areas of concentration are offered for students pursuing the professional studio Bachelor of Fine Arts (B.F.A.) program: drawing, painting, photography, printmaking, and sculpture. B.F.A. candidates are required to have their work evaluated by faculty and peers.
  • Students wishing to teach art in grades K–12 should complete the B.F.A. program and will then be required to complete the graduate-level program in the College of Education and Human Services to become eligible for licensure.
