Visual Arts Minor

The minor in visual arts is designed for students who would like a creative component to complement a major in a related field, such as communication and media studies, art history, urban studies, or computer and information sciences. A minor in visual arts might also serve as a creative addition to majors that would appear at first glance to be unrelated, like psychology, natural sciences, English, or anthropology.

Six courses must be taken for a minor, consisting of the following:
