Why Earn Your BA or BFA in Studio Art?

Both the BA and BFA unlock exciting career opportunities in the visual arts. If you dream of becoming a professional artist or designer, a BFA will provide you with the training and confidence to build your own studio practice, then apply for artist residencies or an MFA. If you’re interested in a career in curating, art direction, web design, multimedia animation, art conservation or arts administration, a BA—a liberal arts degree—will help you develop highly marketable professional skills like analysis, critical thinking and problem solving.

  • Graduate career-ready with the portfolio and practical experience you need to succeed outside the classroom.

What Can You do With a Degree in Art?
