The study of Fine Arts helps you develop your artistic and creative abilities and your ability to think critically, write, and speak about works of art.
The teaching of art at Mount Allison University can be traced back to the opening of the Women's Academy in 1854. It has been an important part of the curriculum since that time.
In 1941 Mount Allison was the first university in Canada to give a BFA degree in the visual arts.
At Mount Allison, Fine Arts offers a unique approach for students looking to obtain professional training — combining studio work and instruction with the freedom of an immersive liberal arts and sciences curriculum.
The Fine Arts program gives you the opportunity to develop your creative and critical ability through studio courses in:
The first-year studio courses give you a broad knowledge and skill base. Second and third-year courses build on this foundation and focus on selected studio areas.
In your final year, you create a body of work through independent study.
In addition to studio classes, you'll undertake courses and seminars that foster an understanding of art history and visual culture.
The Bachelor of Fine Arts is primarily intended to develop creative ability in drawing, painting, photography, printmaking and sculpture.
The major part of the program consists of studio work and includes instruction in design principles and the use of various media.
In addition to the studio classes, illustrated lectures and seminar courses in art history are designed to improve your artistic judgement and assist in acquiring an ability to write and speak about works of art.
