Major programs are offered by the Department of Art in two baccalaureate degree areas, the Bachelor of Arts and the Bachelor of Fine Arts. The Bachelor of Arts degree is a liberal arts program that provides the art major with three emphasis options: studio, art history, or art education (teaching). The Bachelor of Fine Arts degree is a professional program with an intensive studio emphasis. The baccalaureate degree programs in the Department of Art are accredited by the National Association of Schools of Art and Design.
No grade of less than C- shall satisfy any art major or minor degree requirement whether taken at UNI or transferred from another institution. For all studio courses in the Department of Art programs the ratio of student work hours to credit hours is 3:1. Therefore, additional work is required outside the regular class meeting times.
Courses in the Department of Art require specialized materials, some of which are provided through art lab fees.
Art courses which fulfill an Art major requirement cannot be used to fulfill Category 3A of the Liberal Arts Core.
Foundations ProgramThe Foundations Program is a one-year program required for all art majors and art minors. Introductory courses are offered that will provide an intense exploration of basic art concepts and skills as preparation for specialized and advanced areas of study.
Art majors take the 18 hours of introductory courses in the first year of study. The Foundations Program is prerequisite to all studio and art history courses. Generally, students enroll in Drawing I, 2-D Concepts, and Survey of Art History I during the first semester and Drawing II, 3-D Concepts, and Survey of Art History II the second semester.
The Foundations Program is a prerequisite for introductory level courses taken only by Art majors and minors.
