The Department of Media Arts, Design and Technology believes that there is an essential need for students in a technically based research university to engage in coursework that fosters creative thinking, problem-solving, and making. To meet this need, the department offers courses to all students in the university as a minor in Art + Design. Minors are guided through a selection of courses with consultation from a design advisor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The minor in Art + Design consists of 15 total credit hours of study, of which 6 hours must be satisfied at the basic course level. The remaining 9 hours of courses may be selected from the course list in the information provided by the Media Arts, Design and Technology advisor. A grade of \u201cB\u201d or better will be required for credit in all courses in the minor in Art + Design program.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Although all efforts are made to accommodate minors, it is important for potential students to know and understand that access to Art + Design courses are based on a hierarchy where priority access goes to design majors.<\/p>\n\n\n
