The Art Studio Program
Department of Art and Art History

The undergraduate major in Art Studio at UC Davis leads to a Bachelor of Arts degree. Our two-year graduate program leads to a Master of Fine Arts degree. Students benefit from a dedicated faculty with expertise in many areas of the visual arts. Art Studio Faculty deliver a broad range of studio courses providing hands-on practice to the art student. Areas of focus include painting, sculpture, drawing, photography, ceramics, printmaking, and time-based media.

Faculty and staff advisers provide individual academic guidance to students. A dedicated technical staff supports our teaching labs and studios. More information on our facilities can be found under Resources. Administrative support is provided by the Arts Administrative Group staff. Contact information can be found in the Art Studio Directory.

The Art Studio Program also offers numerous public lecture that further our academic mission: The Visiting Artist Lecture Series, The Betty Jean and Wayne Thiebaud Lecture in the Theory, Practice and Criticism of Painting, Drawing and Sculpture, and The California Studio.
