Welcome to the Art Department at Mansfield University. We offer majors in Art History and Graphic Design, with minors in Studio Art and Graphic Design.
The mission of the Art Department at Mansfield University is to develop and sustain flourishing programs within the visual arts that support the needs of its undergraduate students—both traditional and non-traditional, as well as members of the community seeking personal enrichment.
The Art Department’s two undergraduate programs will continue to meet the needs of tomorrow’s students, helping them to cultivate careers as art historians, graphic designers, museum facilitators, and as leaders and entrepreneurs within our communities.
Through all interactions, the Art Department strives to exemplify and teach respect for the art and scholarly community, engendering positive character, the ability to think critically, give and receive constructive feedback, and conduct their actions in an ethical and professional manner. Seamlessly imbedded into the curriculum, is a focus on visual literacy and global awareness, creating a vibrant and comprehensive visual arts program—inherent to the fabric of any strong, liberal arts university and essential in developing individuals who will grow, care for, and leave a positive imprint on the world.
