Studio Art

(formerly Art)

The AA program in Studio Art is intended to prepare students for entry-level positions in the fine and applied art fields. The program seeks to provide breadth through basic requirements in two and three-dimensional studio and art history courses. Additional course work is selected by students toward specific career alternatives such as fine artist, graphic designer, crafts person, illustrator, or computer artist. Employment opportunities in these fields are highly dependent on the quality and breadth of one’s artistic portfolio. In all cases, students should consult with a counselor for more information on university admission and transfer requirements. Students must fulfill the following major requirements with grades of “C” or better, complete a minimum of 60 degree-applicable semester units (12 of which must be completed at Sierra College) with a grade point average of at least 2.0 and complete one of the following three general education patterns:

• Sierra College Associate Degree Requirements (Local General Education)
• California General Education Transfer Curriculum (Cal-GETC)
