Program Description 

The visual arts program, housed within the Department of Communication and Fine Arts, offers a visual arts minor to students who wish to explore the field of visual arts and its relationship to all fields of study offered at Rockhurst University. The program offers a diverse range of courses in art and art history. Visual arts students have a unique opportunity to craft an interdisciplinary course of study and cultivate their unique set of artistic talents. Cutting-edge studio spaces allow students to work in an expansive range of traditional and non-traditional disciplines including drawing, painting, ceramics, sculpture, photography and mixed media.

Learning Outcomes 

The Visual Arts minor approaches art as an essential way of expressing human experience. The study of art introduces students to a universal human activity and to a visual language that infuses form with meaning and affirms our common membership in one human family. Students may take courses in art history, drawing, painting, sculpture, ceramics and other courses.
