Who should take 100 level art courses?
These courses are designed to provide a broad technical and conceptual introduction to all the studio disciplines, and provide a foundation for upper-level work. Thus, they are required for all Art minors and majors, while also serving as an introduction to studio practice. Each course concentrates on three disciplines. Prospective minors and majors in Art are urged to enroll in either Art 101 or 102 at the earliest possible stage. There are no pre-requisites for these courses. Enrollment is open to all students, but some spaces are reserved for Freshman and declared minors and majors.

Who should take 200 level art courses?
These courses provide a fundamental to intermediate-level introduction to a particular studio discipline or area, while framed within an overarching conceptual or thematic approach. They also prepare students for advanced-level and independent work. Minors and majors, while not required to take these course, will need them to fulfill prerequisite and elective requirements. There are no pre-requisites for these courses. Enrollment is open to all students, but some spaces are reserved for declared minors and majors.

Who should take 300 level courses?
These courses are aimed to completing advanced-level studio projects, and usually formulated between faculty and student based on specific interests and experience. The classes are for students who have taken one or more 200-level Art courses, and required for minors and majors. Enrollment is by specified prerequisites only.
