Suggested Four-Year Plan of Study
The Studio Art Option 2-D emphasis and 3-D emphasis follow. Students’ plan of
study may need to be modified due to availability of courses, scheduling/time
conflicts, etc. Students should confer with their advisors to develop a plan of
study that will meet their educational goals.
