Art, Minor
Minor in Art
Overview
The Art minor allows undergraduate students outside of the School of Art to pursue a largely studio-based minor in addition to their primary degree. Students can narrowly focus their interest or explore a number of mediums.
To declare an Art minor, students should contact Keni Jefferson (kjefferson@cmu.edu), in the College of Fine Arts, Room 300. A portfolio is not required.
Curriculum
Five studio-based courses are required, with a minimum of three studios being Intermediate and/or Advanced. A critical studies course exploring art history and theory is also required.
