Introduction
The Department of Art and Design offers BFA, BA, BS and AA
degrees. The Bachelor of Fine Arts degree is available in these
areas of concentration: graphic design, two-dimensional studio or
three-dimensional studio. The Bachelor of Arts degree is available
in art, art/marketing, graphic design/advertising as well as all-level
teacher certification. The Bachelor of Science degree is available
in interior design. The Associate of Arts degree is available in
pre-architecture. A minor in art may be added to other majors.
The department owes it's outstanding reputation to its faculty,
its facilities and its students.
The versatile faculty is made up of award-winning artists, artists
that actively produce and exhibit their creative work, artists that are
leaders in their various fields of discipline. These artists are also superb
educators, educators that love to teach because they love what they
teach, educators that teach by what they say and by what they do,
educators that motivate, inspire and nurture, educators that become
true mentors to their students.
These artist/teachers believe that art is important, that art makes a
difference in this world, that art makes this world a better place, a
more beautiful place, a more livable place. They are convinced that
this world needs more than just artists, it needs Christian artists, artists
that via their talent and various forms of creative expression, can
reflect a dimension of the very nature of God, God as Creator.
This faculty also believes that skills are important, that skills can be
taught and that they can be learned. They believe that the most
important skills for the art and design student, and any artist,
transcend the newest technologies, media and processes. They
believe that these most important skills are found in the ability to
think creatively, to find creative solutions to difficult problems, to
courageously accept challenges and to overcome them. These are
the abilities and skills that the faculty of the Department of Art and
Design believes are most necessary to become leaders rather than
followers, to become the next generation of gifted creative artists,
designers and educators, to become art professionals in the ever-
growing number of art and art-related careers of the 21st century.
ACU art and design students and the art/design faculty enjoy the
advantages of a spacious, well-equipped facility in the Alice Pratt
Brown Art Hall, consisting of large functional studios, high-tech
computer labs and specialized classroom spaces. The complex includes
the Clover Virginia Shore Art Gallery, the heart of the department, an
elegant showcase for the works of nationally recognized artists and
of our students. The computer lab is state-of-the-art, providing theAgricultural and Environmental Sciences/Art and Design 41
