The Studio Art Department provides curricular opportunities for the development of technical skills, aesthetic judgment, and historical understanding. Participation in studio classes stimulates critical thinking and refines creative potential in the visual arts. Students who major in art may elect a studio concentration. Majors are expected to enrich their concentration through selected courses offered by other departments.

First-Year Tutorial
Envisioning Identities: Self, Subgroups, “The Other,” and Belonging
Professor Jeremy Chen taught this First-Year Tutorial in fall 2020 to explore the manifold ways visual artists represent identity and position identities within local, regional, national, global, or cyber contexts.
Every year, faculty from all across the College help students develop their critical thinking and communication skills through a range of unique and compelling tutorial topics.
