Art We all express ourselves in words. But some of us also communicate visually — we create pictures, sculpture, and artwork that often say more than words can express. If you gravitate to this type of communication, our bachelor’s degree program will unleash your creative potential and develop your talents so that you can take them out into the world and make creative and practical use of them.
