Bacharel em Arte

The CCS Art Major is for self-motivated students who are committed to careers in the visual arts. The portfolio-based application selects students prepared for a curriculum that is focused on the practice of studio art and explores historical and contemporary concepts, methods, and movements in art. Students take CCS courses and across campus, including the Department of Art, the Department of the History of Art and Architecture, and the graduate program in Media Arts and Technology.

Each student works with a faculty advisor who oversees an individual course of study to support original work. The students develop a mature body of work during the residency with several exhibition opportunities, culminating in a solo show in her senior year.

Since 1967, the College of Creative Studies (CCS) has offered a small intellectual community of committed undergraduate students and faculty set within a major research university. CCS students and their faculty advisors work together to design a study plan that encourages students to take risks, explore, and develop their passion. Whether it is producing creative work or conducting original research, students are inspired and empowered to make significant contributions to their field by creating new knowledge.

The mission of CCS is to recruit the most talented and imaginative undergraduates and provide them with the intellectual environment and advice that allows them to undergo the transition quickly from consumers of knowledge to colleagues in the act of human creativity in the arts and sciences.
