Overview

What Will I Learn?

Students obtain a solid foundation and broad studio experience, as well as one or more in-depth concentrations in graphic design, ceramics, drawing, painting, photography, printmaking or sculpture. Art Studio B.F.A. students are reviewed annually and their studies culminate in a senior exhibition. B.F.A. candidates graduate at the State University of New York Plattsburg with technical competence, aesthetic judgment and a strong commitment to artistic quality.

Foundations

The foundation Art Studio experience is an integral component of student preparation in the visual arts. The strength of the foundation program rests on a synthesis of drawing, two- and three-dimensional design and art history survey courses. These introductory courses provide the language for visual thinking. The foundation Studio Art program, along with a broad liberal arts education, provide the building blocks for developing our students’ creative individuality.

Concentrations

Every art major elects at least one studio area of concentration with a focus on building a mature level of creative expression. This in-depth involvement also enables our students to create a professional level portfolio for their future goals. Many of our students choose to continue their education in a Master of Fine Arts program.
