Careers & Alumni

With a strong foundation in critique, history, and technique, our students are highly prepared for their futures as a positive force in contemporary society.

Art students find a strong foundation in advanced verbal and written communication skills. Students use visual information to inform and explain ideas, problems, events, and people. They also learn to find necessary sources by analyzing, compiling, and organizing ideas within materials. 

Film students demonstrate fundamental aesthetically driven technical skills essential to media production and develop films grounded in ethical storytelling. They apply creative problem solving and collaborative practices in their work. Students analyze global film studies and synthesize knowledge through the creation and completion of short films.
