The Program

The Art course from Kansas State University is a four-year, 124-credit hour program with concentrations possible in ceramics, digital/experimental media, drawing, graphic design, metalsmithing and jewelry, painting, photography, printmaking, and sculpture.

The degree is considered the appropriate preparation for the master of fine arts degree, which is recognized as the terminal degree in studio arts.

The BA and BFA can also be used as preparation for:

A master’s degree in art therapy when a portfolio of artwork is presented and additional coursework, generally consisting of 12 credits in psychology is completed. Required Psychology credits commonly include developmental and abnormal psychology; requirements for admission may include other preliminary coursework as defined by individual graduate programs.
A master’s degree in artistic and historic conservation. North American education programs offer a master’s degree in conservation or historic preservation for a master’s degree in a related discipline along with a certificate or diploma in conservation. Many graduate programs in conservation of cultural property require preliminary coursework that commonly includes one year of general chemistry and one year of organic chemistry, courses in the humanities such as art history, anthropology, architecture, and archeology, and coursework in studio art. Many programs also require a portfolio of art. Potential candidates should contact programs directly for admission requirements.
