Stonehill College

The liberal arts and sciences are the foundation of a Stonehill College education.

We offer a bachelor of arts in 20 major subjects and a bachelor of science degree in four major subjects. These concentrated areas of study, together with the required Cornerstone Program, ensure that Stonehill students are ready for life, careers and citizenship in the 21st century.

All arts and sciences students select a major prior to either their sophomore or junior years. The major program typically consists of eight to eleven courses, with each department determining the required courses for its own majors. In addition to required courses, each major also allows students to freely choose from a number of elective courses. Students are encouraged to meet with their advisor early on to plan to make the most profitable use of these electives.


“Personal connections inside and outside of the classroom have defined my Stonehill experience.
Not only have my professors provided me with the ‘information’ to build my undergraduate curriculum,
but they have given me the ‘inspiration’ to apply to graduate school with confidence.”

Academic Major: Fine Arts

Degree: Bachelor of Arts (BA)
The Fine Arts major offers an interdisciplinary approach which provides both breadth and depth in the Fine Arts. Students may choose a concentration within the Fine Arts Major in Art History, Graphic Design, Studio Arts, Music or Theatre, or they may choose a more general distribution selecting from Art History, Studio Arts, Music, Dance and Theatre. Students with specific career strategies may declare a double major with, for example, Business, Communication, Elementary Education, English, History, Philosophy, Psychology, Religious Studies or Sociology. The Fine Arts Major prepares students for graduate work or career possibilities in museums, galleries, or corporate collections, graphic design, photography, teaching, art conservation and art therapy.

The program in Theatre Arts provides the student with an additional focus of study in the humanities, education, and collaborative arts. The study of drama incorporates theoretical and practical knowledge in a variety of areas touching many cultures and eras. The personal development of the student is aided by a deeper understanding of the workings of the human imagination and emotions, the use of the body and voice as a means of expression, and the complexities of interpersonal relationships as seen in art and life. By taking part in the production of plays, the student's senses of responsibility and self-discipline are further tested and strengthened. This program enables students to pursue further goals which may include: graduate work in theatre and related fields; creative dramatics in primary, secondary and special needs education; writing; development of community theatres; arts management; and careers stressing interpersonal communication.
