mission statement

The mission of the Department of Art is two fold: Contribute a necessary and integral component to the mission of the University by providing opportunities for broad artistic and intellectual development of the University body; and specifically nurture and support the quality education of those who have chosen fine arts as a professional goal either as producing artists or as teachers.

The faculty is committed to excellence in teaching, research, and service to the university and the community, and strives to provide a learning environment which nurtures not only the artistic spirit but the spirit and professionalism of the prospective art teacher as well. The studio-oriented program leads to study at the graduate level or professional employment. The art education program leads to teacher licensure in grades K-12. The department strives to provide the faculty with the opportunities, resources, and rewards to achieve excellence in their respective disciplines.

Before graduating from either program, a senior is required to present an acceptable exhibition of his or her work from his or her area of concentration.
