Art A.B.

Chair:  Professor DiRosa

The A.B. affords students the opportunity to pursue art making in a rich interdisciplinary environment. The degree offers a balance of courses in art fundamentals and electives with in-depth involvement in studio practice. All studio courses emphasize hands-on experience where confidence, skills and ideas are developed. Small classes and well-equipped work spaces provide students with the environment and tools conducive to the creative process. Students work closely with a faculty of active artists with first-hand knowledge of the medium. As part of their training as artists, students are strongly encouraged to select the best Elon Core Curriculum and other courses that will complement their research and art making. The A.B. in art requires 48 semester hours.

Students may not minor in Digital Art if they are a declared Art major.
