Department Overview
 

The Art and Design program offers courses leading to a Bachelor of Fine Arts (B.F.A.) in Visual Arts degree. All students begin with the CORE program (Communication, Organization, Realization, Expression), covering the first two years, which produces a strong understanding of the design fundamentals and applications of traditional art media. Foundation level courses, including 2D and 3D design, color theory, drawing, and creative technology, are designed to prepare students to begin their advanced concentration coursework in the sophomore year.

Students in the program can decide from three concentrations, aligned with primary creative career paths: Studio Arts, Animation, or Graphic Design. The program also offers minors in Animation, Graphic Design, Photography, and Studio Arts.


Mission Statement
 

The mission of the Art and Design Department at Virginia State University is to produce the artists of tomorrow, one individual at a time. Our faculty is committed to the artistic development of each student as a unique individual through the process of instruction and mentorship. Our goal is to prepare students for success in whatever professional arena of art they choose by providing a solid base of artistic knowledge and technical skill, then encouraging creative exploration and stylistic development from this foundation. Through the creative work and service of our students and faculty, we hope to engender a broader appreciation for the arts to enhance the vitality of the university and surrounding community.


Accreditation Information
 

The Art and Design program is accredited by NASAD, the National Association of Schools of Art and Design. Founded in 1944, the National Association of Schools of Art & Design (NASAD) is an organization of schools, conservatories, colleges, and universities with approximately 328 accredited institutional members. It establishes national standards for undergraduate and graduate degrees and other credentials for art and design and art/design-related disciplines, and provides assistance to institutions and individuals engaged in artistic, scholarly, educational, and other art/design-related endeavors.

Virginia State University is one of few public HBCUs in the nation to offer a Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA) degree in Visual Arts.


Department Goals
 

The department goals of the Art and Design program are to ensure that:

  • Students will demonstrate an entry-level competence for a professional in their area of specialization, including technical mastery of their media, understanding and use of the concepts of design, and the ability to clearly communicate the intended message.
  • Students will demonstrate the ability to develop a cohesive artistic concept (focus) evident throughout a body of work produced in their chosen media.
  • Students will be able to research, form and defend value judgments about art and design in both written and oral statements. The student will effectively communicate these ideas at a professional level.
  • Students will engage through the arts with their university and local community.

Bachelor of Fine Arts (B.F.A.) in Visual Arts

Studio Arts Concentration - Prepares students for contemporary artistic careers among the disciplines of drawing, painting, printmaking, sculpture, ceramics, mixed media, and new media. As they follow their focus through sequential courses, students can shape their own curricula to span across traditional artistic boundaries and learn a variety of media specially designed to meet their needs and creative desires. This artistic “cross training” permits students to expand their creative horizons using new media tools, techniques, and concepts, and become the artistic leaders of the 21st century.

Animation Concentration - Teaches students the principles and skills of motion and time-based media, using 2D and 3D traditional and digital methods. The curriculum is designed to prepare students to enter graduate programs of study in animation, and/or entry-level apprentice positions within the industry.

Graphic Design Concentration - Students follow a course sequence that builds the knowledge and skills necessary to compete in today’s commercial arts marketplace. The program prepares students for careers as commercial artists in areas such as branding, digital illustration, print, and packaging design.

Although a portfolio review is not required for acceptance into the BFA in Visual Arts CORE Program, advancement to the specific concentrations (Studio Art, Animation, Graphic Design) in the second year is dependent on a review of the student’s portfolio of artwork, along with the successful completion of all prerequisite courses with a minimum of a ‘C’ grade.

Minors

  • Animation
