The BFA in art with an emphasis in illustration, like other intensive studio degrees, includes a comprehensive examination of the history and theories of visual studies. This approach allows for a wide range of interests and styles, suited for technical, editorial or narrative illustration.
A study of the creative strategies of global artists throughout history and a core exploration in a range of media encourage students to seek imaginative and innovative approaches to both individual and client-based challenges. More directed study leads to a practical knowledge of the common materials and techniques for illustration, both past and current. ·
The illustration emphasis culminates in coursework and a thesis project that connect the students' work to content in areas outside of studio practice, such as science, literature, politics or any range of contemporary global concerns. Through humor, drama or instructional work students learn how illustrators can be a distinctive voice in shaping our culture.
Students in the BFA program with an emphasis in illustration fulfill most of the same core requirements as for the BA in studio art. In addition, they must complete 9 further credit hours in art history and criticism; 30 credit hours in illustration-specific courses; and 3 credit hours in a content area outside of studio practice.
