Art-Studio

Exploring the Major— Students considering this concentration must enroll in the 100-level foundation/core and 100-level studio courses during their first three terms at Berea.

Admission to the Major— Completion of ART 110 and ART 115 with a grade of C or higher in each.

Course Sequencing Considerations (in order to complete degree requirements within eight terms)— Students interested in this major should take General Education requirements at the same time as Art courses. Studio courses at the 100 level are offered every Fall and Spring term. Studio classes are taken in sequence and no 200-level studio class may be taken without the prerequisite and the appropriate 100-level media and foundation/core course. Upper-level (200 and higher) ARH courses should not be taken until the prerequisite courses and the appropriate 100-level ARH course have been completed. ARH 255 should be completed by the second term of the junior year. Students in this concentration must satisfactorily complete ART 493 during the last regular term of residence.

Proficiency Requirements for Retention in and Completion of the Major— In addition to all foundation/core courses and the above-stated minimum grade of C in ART 110 and ART 115, majors must successfully complete the 400 level studio media focus and ART 493 requirements and participate in a group senior exhibition or a faculty-approved one-person exhibition.

Other Considerations and Recommendations— No ART course offered in the former Short Terms may be applied to the major requirements.
