Fine Arts Minor-Sculpture

Print Degree Planner (opens a new window) |

Qualified students may complete a minor focused specifically in sculpture within the Department of Fine Arts Sculpture/3D option. The minor consists of 18 credits. To declare a minor, students must meet university requirements and be approved by the both Fine Arts Department and the department of the major. Students must maintain a grade point average of 2.0 in all minor classes. A review of progress in the sculpture minor occurs during and/or junior reviews.

The student selects 12-15 credits from the 200-300-level studio courses listed below and then chooses one (1) or two (2) upper-level (400-level) courses in sculpture.

A minor must be completed at the time of the degree and will be so noted on the student’s transcript. A student cannot be readmitted to the University to complete only a minor.
