<p><font face="Arial,Helvetica"><font color="#000000"><font size=-1>The four-year
program leading to a Bachelor of Arts degree in Art offers Rutgers students
at he Camden campus a variety of concentrations which include art history, computer
graphics, graphic design, museum studies, painting, printmaking & </font></font></font><font face="Arial,Helvetica"><font color="#000000"><font size=-1>photography,
sculpture, and teacher ertification (in cooperation with the Education Department).
Students may also design their own nterdisciplinary majors to prepare for careers
in art therapy, medical illustration, advertising, and other fields. </font></font></font>
<p><font face="Arial,Helvetica"><font color="#000000"><font size=-1>Housed in
the Fine Arts Center at the Camden campus of Rutgers, the Art studios are among
the best-equipped educational facilities in the Greater Delaware Valley. Full-time
studio art faculty members are professional artists who have contributed their
works to major exhibitions throughout the United States and abroad. Scholars
in classical, Renaissance, and modern art are included among the art history
faculty. </font></font></font>
<p><font face="Arial,Helvetica"><font color="#000000"><font size=-1>Students who
concentrate in studio art are exposed to a variety of media, with particular
emphasis on drawing, composition, and color theory. Many areas of specialization
are available once the core curriculum has been completed. After rigorous training,
degree candidates are expected to participate in a Senior Thesis Exhibition
prior to graduation. A sizable percentage of art majors pursue advanced degrees
or move on to professional careers in graphic design, computer graphics, and
related art disciplines. To ensure that Camden art majors obtain a strong liberal
arts education, the curriculum has been designed with course <br>
requirements in the natural sciences, social sciences, and humanities. </font></font></font>
