College of Arts and Letters
Art, Art History & Design is a vibrant, multidisciplinary department offering graduate and undergraduate programs in studio art, art history, and design. We provide students with intellectually informed instruction in critical visual studies within the context of the liberal arts at an international Catholic research university.
Student exhibitions of art and design work are an important aspect of department programming and demonstrate a broad awareness of themes, strategies and processes of contemporary practice.
