B.F.A Degree
Bachelor of Fine Arts
Major in Art with a Graphic Design Emphasis


The BFA Degree provides a more comprehensive and structured background in graphic design and the fine arts. This degree provides the greatest well defined knowledge of Creative Graphic Design at the undergraduate level and is recommended for students seeking careers as creative designers, multimedia designers, illustrators, web designers and art directors. This approach allows a student to focus in Fine Art, Graphic and Multimedia Design with out an outside minor. The 21 credit outside of department minor is waived and those credits are taken in more advanced Art and Graphic Design course work. Students from this program often seek admission into graduate schools with a more well defined personal and professional portfolio after completing the undergraduate degree and go on to teach or work as professional designers.
