Welcome to the Department of Art & Design
The Art Department provides students with opportunities to study and excel in the visual arts through undergraduate areas of concentration in animation, art education, art history, ceramics, drawing, communication design, illustration, painting, photography, printmaking, sculpture, and video. Students have opportunities to pursue Master of Arts and Master of Fine Arts graduate degrees in visual arts, art education, and art history. In addition, students can complete state-accredited art education courses, which lead to a California State secondary art teaching credential.
