Interdisciplinary Arts
Interdisciplinary Arts (IA) gives students the opportunity to develop expertise in areas spanning written, visual, performance, sound and video, internet, and publication arts as they respond to the constantly evolving world of contemporary arts practice.The IA major is built on the belief that advanced contributions to art can be made by anyone from any class, ethnicity, race, nationality, gender, and background. IA faculty implement the most current and relevant thinking and practices in art in order to inspire students to push towards new advancements and achievements.The degree focuses on helping students learn how to think in innovative and experimental ways while developing independent projects of a high artistic standard. Coursework in the IA major includes a core class on interdisciplinary arts theory and practice (BISIA 319) and studio-based workshops classes. It enables students to develop do-it-yourself strategies for artistic practice and take part in artist-run initiatives.
