- The College of the Arts consists of the departments of industrial design, art education,
- history of art, theatre, art dance, music, and the Advanced Computing Center for the Arts
- and Design. Each department is a small world within the most comprehensive public
- institution in the country. Learning is still very much a one-on-one experience, while the
- influences that touch students are all encompassing. The College recently added the Robert
- Shaw Institute in the School of Music and is working to establish a center for media arts.
- At The Ohio State University, artists are prepared for the 21st century. A solid liberal arts
- foundation is at the core of studentâ•’s learning experience. Students study influences from
- the past and examine the traditions that have shaped the world. They create in the present,
- applying the latest techniques, technologies, and ideas to their work.
-
- The Department of Art at The Ohio State University has twenty-two full time faculty and
- six visiting artists working in the areas of ceramics, expanded arts, glass,
- painting/drawing, printmaking, and sculpture. The department offers both BFA and MFA
- degrees and enrolls about 35 graduate students and 150 undergraduate students per year.
- Interdisciplinary study is encouraged between other departments in the College of the Arts
- and other departments in the University such as physics, geology, and architecture. The
- department sponsors year round exhibition programs at the Hopkins Hall Gallery (in the
- department of art building) and at the Wexner Center for the Visual Arts.
-
- The Advanced Computing Center for the Arts and Design (ACCAD) at The Ohio State
- University has a 25 year history of research and instruction in computer graphics and
- animation. Formerly called the Computer Graphics Research Group (CGRG), the Center
- has a true interdisciplinary character and attempts to merge scientific investigation with
- aesthetic ideals. While it is administratively located in the College of the Arts, it provides
- leadership in computer graphics and animation development to support instruction and
- research in both the arts and the sciences. The Center offers a context in which students and
- faculty representing both disciplines can learn the power of the digital syntax. It promotes
- the study of an aesthetic message design that can have an impact upon such diverse areas as
- computer software development, advertising and television promotion, the visual and
- performing arts, and scientific computing and visualization.
