Visual Arts and Design Track
All students are required to enroll in a mathematics course each semester of the first year. Placement in mathematics courses is determined by the student’s score on the mathematics placement test given during summer orientation. Visual Arts and Design students who complete Calculus II or higher their first year must take CSCE 1030 the fall semester of the second year.
The TAMS Visual Arts and Design Track provides students with a strong background for the creative arts fields. Students take courses in drawing, design, art appreciation, and art history while taking advantage of the latest technologies in UNT’s newly renovated Art Building and having access to several on-campus galleries and art institutes. Students continuing on to pursue a degree within the College of Visual Arts and Design go into careers as photographers, museum curators, graphic and user-experience designers, illustrators, art educators and historians, and fashion and interior designers.
