| What it is | Visual Studies is the study of how images, film, photography, and design communicate meaning and shape culture. You'll learn theory, history, and hands-on practice across cinematography, photography, fine art, and design. This program suits students who want to understand visual culture deeply and develop creative skills, rather than train narrowly for a specific design or film production role. | This program combines a fine arts degree with teacher training, so you graduate qualified to teach visual art at the high school level. Unlike a straight fine arts degree, you complete education courses and practicums alongside studio work, meaning you finish with both a BFA and a BEd. It suits people who want to make and teach art rather than pursue studio practice or teaching as separate paths. | Creative Technologies is a visual arts and design degree that combines fine art, graphic design, and digital media with entrepreneurship skills so you can develop creative work and understand how to turn ideas into projects or businesses. Unlike a straight fine arts program, it emphasizes the practical and business side of creative work. It suits people who want to make art or design but also care about how creative work reaches audiences and generates opportunity. |
