艺术

学部简介

The 艺术 Department is an umbrella for five programs: 艺术 History, 工作室艺术, 体系结构, 电影与媒体研究(CAMS), 媒体艺术与科学(MAS). 学生可以主修或双主修这些领域中的任何一个, 他们还可以选择辅修艺术史, 工作室艺术, 或摄像头. We believe the rigorous study of art and visual culture is critical to a liberal arts education and to a person’s power to 解释, 形状, 掌握他们的环境.
