The Art Department is part of the College of Arts and Behavioral Sciences, offering both a major & minor in art and graphic design.
Art majors may earn a B.A. or B.F.A. degree.
Because most classes do not exceed 25 students at SVSU, you'll work closely with art professors who are accomplished artists in their own right. Their paintings, photographs, prints, and sculptures have been exhibited at numerous regional and national shows.
You also will be exposed to the creativity of other outstanding contemporary artists whose works are exhibited in the Art Department Gallery, located on the first floor of the Arbury Fine Arts Center.
