Bachelor of Arts in Visual and Dramatic Arts - Studio Art

The Department of Visual and Dramatic Arts welcomes the full spectrum of Rice University undergraduate students. Scientists, architects, historians, engineers and economists, among many others, augment our core of arts majors to create a diverse, lively forum of artists and thinkers. We believe this composite community is a vital asset to majors and non-majors alike: art thrives in contact with new and varied perspectives, and the risk-taking and critical thinking necessary to making art are crucial in many other fields. Beyond a dynamic artistic practice, we aim to cultivate an artistic frame of mind.
Upon completing the BA degree with a major in Visual and Dramatic Arts and a major concentration in Studio Art, students will be able to: Demonstrate a knowledge and understanding of a variety of materials and processes in a range of two and three-dimensional media as well as the ability to apply these acquired skills to other materials and ways of working. This includes students developing their own artistic vocabularies. Demonstrate the ability to explore and hone a variety of techniques and materials while developing their own artistic vocabularies and creative vision. This involves gaining a familiarity with a wide range of skills, concepts, and approaches essential to artistic development. Demonstrate an understanding of the meaning and potential purpose of the arts, a knowledge of art history, art's role and varied guises in contemporary society, and art's relationship and engagement with other disciplines including literature, music, philosophy, and the sciences. Develop an understanding of self in the larger context of the practice of art.
Visual and Dramatic Arts intersects the arts and community engagement outside of Rice. The Department’s three concentrations – Studio Art, Theater, and Film and Photography – allow students to study sculpture, critical theory, drawing, painting, photography, printmaking, acting, directing, stage design, and film production. Our faculty are all engaged in their fields and exhibit, screen, and stage their work locally, nationally, and abroad. Throughout the year, faculty and students curate and present programs, including film screenings, theater productions, and exhibitions, that are open to the people of Rice, Houston, and beyond.
