Studio Arts

Courses will stimulate conceptual thinking, problem solving and critical analysis through direct application and experience, as well as foster an understanding of art within history and culture.

Students who major in the field of art have a variety of opportunities open to them.

Choices include careers in teaching, art criticism, historic preservation, museum/gallery practices, or work as practicing artists in ceramics, painting, sculpture, drawing, or applied art.

The Associate in Arts in Studio Arts for Transfer (AA-T in Studio Arts) is intended for students who plan to transfer and complete a bachelor’s degree in Studio Arts, or a “similar” major at a CSU campus.

For a current list of what majors (and what options or areas of emphasis within that major) have been designated as “similar” to this degree at each CSU campus, please refer to adegreewithaguarantee.com and seek guidance from a Moorpark College counselor.

Students completing this degree are guaranteed admission to the CSU system but not necessarily to a particular campus or major of choice..
