The minor in Fine Arts is intended to deepen an appreciation for and encourage a lifelong engagement in the fine arts, including painting, sculpture, photography, music, film, drama, and creative writing. As participation in fine arts courses, both in practice and in theory, stimulates creative thinking and develops problem solving skills that are applicable to other areas of study, this minor is meant to round out The Citadel experience. Students are also encouraged to engage with the broader artistic community of Charleston through participation in events, internships, exhibitions, and performances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Through the foundation courses in art and music, the student will gain a broad understanding of the cultural and historical significance of the fine arts as well as applied knowledge of a variety of artistic mediums. Further courses will develop the student\u2019s interest in more specific areas, such as musical performance, emphasis on a particular visual medium, or internships in local arts organizations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Choose three additional elective courses, including at least two at or above the 300 level (9 credit hours)<\/strong> *Courses related to the Fine Arts in other departments may be considered and approved by the English, Fine Arts, & Communications Department Chair.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Total Credit Hours Required \u2014 15, at least 9 of which must be completed at The Citadel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n To register for the Fine Arts minor, please fill out this form<\/a> and have it signed by either Professor Tiffany Silverman<\/a>, Director of Fine Arts, or Dr. Scott Lucas<\/a>, Department Chair of English, Fine Arts, & Communications.
