The Visual Arts tracks encompass the required work in the studio disciplines. This curriculum provides the student with the foundation and advanced skills necessary for a career in the arts, graduate study, and preparation for a broad range of general career paths.

Senior Project I and II for studio art majors involves the production and presentation of well-executed and articulate work in a particular medium and a public exhibition at the Stockton Art Gallery or other designated venue. The Senior Project in the visual arts is open only to students who have demonstrated a high level of artistic achievement. Enrollment therefore requires permission of the instructor.
