BFA in Interdisciplinary Practice

Students in the BFASA who wish to pursue an elective based course of study in the fine arts should consider the interdisciplinary practice concentration. Contemporary artists and arts discourse use the term "Interdisciplinary Practice" to describe artworks reflecting a mixed media approach to making, in contrast to an artist or art practice that is discipline-specific (for example a painter/painting).

BFASA in Interdisciplinary Practice

The BFASA with a concentration in Interdisciplinary Practice offers a student-initiated path through a variety of studio art methods and course offerings. This concentration is meant for those students who want to develop multiple approaches to making art, rather than focusing on a singular discipline or medium. The contemporary art world is inherently interdisciplinary, flexible, and responsive to new technologies and methods of expression. The Interdisciplinary Studio concentration recognizes this and offers students the opportunity to approach, hone and develop skills across the wide range of related fine arts practices offered in the School of Art and Design. Students who choose the Interdisciplinary Practice concentration develop an array of practical approaches, weaving together experience and skills from courses across our studio areas and faculty expertise. Interdisciplinary courses at the sophomore, junior, and senior level focus on developing practical skills in a variety of material applications. Advanced courses center on building critical, theoretical, and professional competencies and expertise in unique studio practices.
