PROGRAM REQUIREMENTS
In addition to general university requirements and General Studies requirements,
students seeking the B.F.A. in Art must meet the requirements listed below.
A grade of "C" or better must be earned
in all courses that are part of a major program. Deficiencies in art
requirements may be satisfied by course work at UWF. However, none of the art
courses in the General Studies curriculum may be used to satisfy junior/senior
requirements. All course choices must have art faculty approval.
The Department of Art reserves the right to
retain for the University's collection any work produced by students as part of
the requirements for their degree programs.
After acceptance into the program, all B.F.A.
students must complete the minimum of 18 sh of studio and/or art history courses
at UWF. B.F.A. students must participate in two group and two individual
critique sessions each semester of their junior and senior years, observing only
on the first group review. The group reviews are scheduled by the faculty in or
around the 6th and 11th weeks of the semester; singular reviews are arranged by
students with their faculty committees. If no problems in progress are noted
during the junior year, B.F.A students must submit a summary portfolio during
the senior year "final" individual critique session and participate in
the B.F.A. final show in the Art Gallery for the summer session (prepared during
the Senior Seminar course).
Course descriptions are listed alphabetically by
prefix at Course Listings/Descriptions.
