The mission of Nova Southeastern University, a private, not-forprofit institution, is to offer a diverse array of innovative academic programs that complement on-campus educational opportunities and resources with accessible distance learning programs to foster academic excellence, intellectual inquiry, leadership, research, and commitment to community through engagement of students and faculty members in a dynamic, life-long learning environment. The art and design major provides students with a dynamic and comprehensive instructional program in the visual arts. Students may earn a BA in Art and Design in preparation for careers as freelance artists or for employment with public and private organizations. Students gain solid grounding in core courses including fundamentals of color, art history, and photography, and then focus their work within graphic design or studio art. On-campus studios (printmaking, drawing, painting, graphic design, ceramic, sculpture, and pottery), gallery, and museum-quality installations and traveling exhibitions encourage students to connect with visual art every day. Art majors at NSU are also free members of Fort Lauderdale’s NSU Art Museum, and can visit the latest exhibits, attend talks or openings, or serve as a volunteer or intern.
