A DEGREE IN ART HONES YOUR CREATIVE EDGE & COLLABORATIVE SKILLS.

 


THE ART DEPARTMENT ENCOURAGES AND PROMOTES INDEPENDENT, ORIGINAL, INNOVATIVE AND
CRITICAL THINKING SKILLS AND PREPARES STUDENTS FOR A CAREER IN ART.

The department endeavors to provide an environment of artistic and academic
excellence in the visual arts. By design it provides the student the opportunity
to explore, research and master skills needed for many art careers. The
department serves a vital community role in enriching the Alaskan humanities
through the promotion of all aspects of visual arts, from traditional to
contemporary including Alaska Native art and history.

The department designs, develops and implements programs that encourage and
foster new ways of seeing as part of the Alaska aesthetic. Department faculty
teach the means, modes and history of art to encourage independent, original,
critical and creative thinking. Students enrolled in art studio classes are
provided technical skills and access to facilities required to create fine art
in varied disciplines in diverse media. Students are prepared for careers in art
and the department operates a gallery for the presentation of student, faculty
and special exhibitions The gallery provides opportunity for academic and career
development with an emphasis on professional presentation of works. The
department  also serves as a resource center for artists and arts groups.
 Emphasis is placed on Alaska Native Arts, given the university’s location and
the diversity of Native cultures represented in the student body and the value
placed upon Alaska Native culture and art in the North.
