Introduction
The School of Art undergraduate studio programs emphasize contemporary research in creative practices in art, design, and art history. Students engage in one-on-one dialogue, group critiques, experiential learning and technical demonstrations, exhibition tours, visiting artists’ lectures, field trips, and more, creating a lively studio culture.
The Bachelor of Fine Arts (General) degree (3 years) is designed to provide balanced learning of theory and practice. Studio courses focus on the production of art and design, through studio practice, related theory, and the technical education necessary to become an educator, or a professional creative artist in fine art or applied fields.
All undergraduate students take first and second-year studios in experimental and foundation studies, followed by a more intensive study in specific fine art and design disciplines beginning the third year. Students graduate with a Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA) degree and deep disciplinary knowledge along with strong critical thinking skills and the agility to problem solve and connect the dots across a wide range of fields.
The BFA Honours degree (4 years) allows students to complete an additional year of study including electives, as well as self-directed studio work and research.
