Department of Art & Design

The Department of Art and Design is composed of the Art, Graphic Design and Interior Design programs.  Visual Art and Design is a community of visual artists, designers and creative thinkers engaged in teaching, learning, and development of a wide variety of art forms and thought.

We offer degrees in Art, Graphic Design, and Interior Design with concentration areas in Pre-Architecture, Museum Studies, and Digital Art and Design.  Our philosophy places emphasis on strong critical and foundation skills, coupled with developing experiences with the most up to date technologies.  Our programs are conceptually challenging and work with students to help them develop as artists and designers.

If you are a prospective student, we invite you to join as an active member of this exciting community. If you are an alumnus, we invite you to visit the campus, see our new facilities, visit our art gallery, and interact with faculty and students.
