Undergraduate studies in art and design at SAIC offer students the opportunity to pursue an individualized course of study following the First Year Program. The undergraduate curriculum can be understood as a sustained, structured dialogue between making and thinking. The ability to explore ideas—by painting, making prints, creating performances, making photographs, videos, and films, or by combining media—requires that students develop both technical and critical competencies. Students develop the ability to respond with sophistication to visual phenomena and learn to organize perceptions and conceptualizations both rationally and intuitively.
