Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA) in Studio Arts - Santa Fe - NM - New Mexico - College of Santa Fe - I1438

The Bachelor of Fine Arts in Studio Arts is the initial professional degree in art. In this program, the art department challenges young artists to develop a rigorous, inquisitive, and sustainable art practice.

We support this philosophically by recognizing each practice as both unique to the individual and connected to the world. We support this pedagogically through clearly organized and relevant coursework, including

    * Drawing
    * Painting
    * Sculpture
    * Installation
    * Time-based media

Each practice is

    * Anchored in specific material/process-based skills
    * Located in the vibrant context of the discipline’s histories and contemporary practice
    * Expanded by an interdisciplinary conversation of intersecting ideas
    * Individualized through the mentorship of each student’s passions and capacities
    * Launched into “life after college” through a professional sequence of courses (Internship, Professional Practice, and Thesis Exhibition)
