ART WITH AN INTERDISCIPLINARY APPROACH The B.A. in Art–one of three undergraduate art and design degrees offered at UD–provides the same foundation in art making through its Core studio courses that B.F.A. students receive along with additional upper level studio courses to further hone the student's artistic skills. It encourages an interdisciplinary approach with many students earning a minor or second major from departments across the college and university. The B.A. provides an opportunity for students to develop highly personal portfolios that can incorporate art and design with work from other disciplines with very marketable results. The B.A. also reflects developments in Fine Art involving more environmentally and socially engaged art practices, technology or performance-based work, as well as artworks emphasizing academic research. Other degrees in art and design at UD are the B.F.A in Fine Arts and the B.F.A in Visual Communications.

The Art is a Bachelor degree offered by University of Delaware at its main campus in Newark , United States of America.
