Bachelor of Fine Arts
Creative, enterprising, and questioning
The Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA) is a five-year, strong technical and critical thinking program for the future. Successful students have a passion for creating their art and a heightened intellectual and visual perception. Through the co-op experience, students are introduced to careers in a wide field of art professions.
DAAP's BFA program offers a broad curriculum with the ability to specialize in a single media, or work across media, as students develop their artistic paths. We provide instruction in areas that include Art & Technology, Ceramics, Drawing & Painting, Photography, Printmaking, and Sculpture. We support interdisciplinary practice and encourage experimental artforms.
I am very nontraditional when it comes to my artistic practice. Despite this, I've used this BFA program to my advantage in order to do what I really want: make video games. I'm grateful that DAAP gave me the flexibility to do so.
