Overview

This Printmaking degree at Arcadia University provides a thorough knowledge of major printmaking techniques (intaglio, silk screen and relief) and emphasizes aesthetics and use of the medium to express personal style and image. Seniors work with considerable independence at a highly sophisticated technical and aesthetic level.

Internships are strongly recommended and are required for some concentrations. Each B.F.A., B.A. studio, and Scientific Illustration student is required to complete a senior thesis, including an exhibition and written thesis, in his or her major area. An exceptional student, with permission of the Department Chair and additional course work, may complete a thesis in two major areas.
