College of Eastern Utah Art Department

Whether you are a prospective student wondering about majoring in art, or a curious alum interested in how things are going , we hope you will find what you want to know. The art faculty and staff work hard at making your art experience at CEU truly unique.

The CEU Art Department offers a foundation art curriculum for the first two years of college study. Emphasis is placed on drawing, composition, and design. The department offers a unique experience for art majors to initiate their artistic development in small classes that are designed for personal interaction with instructors. Students who complete their art curriculum at CEU can expect to transfer successfully into a university art program.


Programs & Degrees

Areas of specialization: Advertising Design, Art Education, Ceramics, Drawing, Art Graphics/Computer Applications, Industrial Design, Painting, Photography, Printmaking, and Sculpture. Courses are also offered for students majoring in Architecture and Elementary Education.

Art majors other than Graphic Arts Applications should complete their general education requirements and their major core curriculum by the end of the sophomore year. They must satisfactorily complete the foundation curriculum during their first two semesters. Foundation Curriculum consists of the following: ART 1110, Drawing I, ART 1120, Drawing II, ART 1130, Two Dimensional Design for Art majors and ART 1240, Three Dimensional Design. Majors must take one elective in each of the following areas: Ceramics or Sculpture, Painting, and Printmaking. An additional two studio elective classes must be taken in the art area of their choice. Art majors must complete the core requirements plus elective courses as outlined by the advisor or the major emphasis professor.

Students transferring to other institutions will develop a portfolio of their work during their two years in the department. The portfolio will be the responsibility of the student working with the department professor in the area of specialization. Two hours of credit will be given for this portfolio by registering for ART 2988, Special Problems, during the final semester of the student's enrollment. Grades will be determined by the quality of the portfolio. A minimum of 27 semester credits in art is necessary for the art major seeking an associate degree and transferring to the university to assure being on line to graduate and transfer all work.

Each year in the spring, the art department offers a number of departmental scholarship awards based on talent. All students applying for an art scholarship must submit a CEU Application for Admission and a general Scholarship Application. Students must submit a portfolio of actual work to the department by April 15th. If a student is unable to make a campus visit, they will be required to submit a slide portfolio of 10-15 examples of recent work.
