Ever want to indulge your passion for creating? The Studio Arts Minor program in the Department of Art is the perfect complement to all majors in which effective visual communication is critical, and to enrich an understanding of how visual and artistic traditions inform the way our diverse global community processes ideas and complex messages. 

Undergraduate students in the program must complete 24 units of courses in visual communications design and art history and satisfy both general education (GE) C1 and the Lower Division Art History requirement with a C1 Art History GE course offered by the department within the College of Enviromental Design.

Students must select a concentration within the area of Studio Arts: Print Making, Painting, Ceramics, Sculpture, or Drawing by repeating one the following courses outlined in the Curriculum section below.

The Fine Print

A student may not declare a major and minor in the same degree plan, with the exception of some interdisciplinary minors. They must satisfy the minor requirements listed in the Cal Poly Pomona University catalog at the time they declare the minor or at the time of graduation.

Students are encouraged to declare a major as early as possible in their academic career, but no later than the fifth week of the term in which they plan to graduate.

Note: Students may not continue enrollment to complete the minor after completion of their major program.
