About the Department of the Arts
At the Department of the Arts, we don't just teach art, we cultivate the next generation of visionary creators, critical thinkers, and cultural leaders. Our five dynamic programs: Film, Graphic Design, Music, Theatre, and Visual Arts form the vibrant heart of a liberal arts education, challenging students to explore the fine arts as a powerful fusion of historical insight, cultural dialogue, and social impact.
Our curriculum is a deliberate balance of deep theory and hands-on practice. We challenge students to sharpen their technical skills while engaging their intellect, empowering students to not only create compelling art but to understand its context and consequence in the world.
Our faculty are more than instructors; they are practicing artists, designers, musicians, and scholars who bring their real-world passion and expertise directly into the classroom. They are dedicated mentors who will guide students to discovering their unique voice and pushing the boundaries of their potential.
Bring your boldest ideas to life in our professional-grade facilities. Students have access to cutting-edge studios, industry-standard softwares, dedicated theatrical stages, and rehearsal spaces, all designed to provide the tools and freedom of creativity demands.
