Double Major in Art and Psychology with Art Therapy Concentration
Want to learn more? Speak with an admissions counselor.
For students interested in a later career in art therapy, the department offers a double major in art and psychology with an art therapy concentration in conjunction with the Department of Art. With the exception of art education majors, all B.A. students must complete at least one upper level course in the area of study chosen for their senior thesis exhibit. For example: Both Painting I and Painting II are required for students presenting painted works for their senior thesis exhibit.
Note that the Double Major in Art and Psychology with Art Therapy Concentration is designed to provide a strong preparatory base for graduate study in art therapy and meets the educational requirements for entry into Caldwell’s graduate program in Clinical Mental Health Counseling with an art therapy concentration. Registration and practice as an art therapist requires master’s level preparation. Qualified undergraduates in the double major with Art Therapy Concentration may also take advantage of the opportunity to pursue their M.A. in Clinical Mental Health Counseling with an art therapy concentration in an accelerated manner through the Combined B.A./M.A. program.
JUNIOR COMPREHENSIVE 1 credit
In the junior year students are required to execute independently a series of works that demonstrate proficiency in various media. All art faculty evaluate students in a group critique. An evaluation of each individual student is made jointly by the department. Areas of weakness are addressed and students may be required to repeat a project. Students may be required to do additional coursework if skill or understanding in a particular area(s) is insufficient. Junior Project students may not go on to enroll in the Senior Thesis Exhibit until all studies for the Junior Project and any remedial coursework are satisfactorily completed. Students should have taken the following courses prior to their junior year: AR 111 Drawing I, AR 200 2D Design and Color Theory, AR 118 3D Design and AR 280 Painting I.
It is strongly recommended that students take this course in the fall semester
SENIOR SEMINAR 2 credits
In the fall semester of senior year all seniors are required to enroll in the Senior Seminar. Students are required to research a contemporary artist of their choice who makes work that relates to the student’s area of interest. Students must also write a detailed proposal for their senior thesis exhibition which takes place in the spring semester of their senior year. A grade of C is required to pass. Course may be retaken the following fall if not passed. This course may not be taken if a student has failed the Junior Comprehensive.
B.A. SENIOR EXHIBIT 2 credits
In the spring semester a group exhibition is scheduled for three to four students at one time. Each student is designated a gallery area in which to mount a selection of works specifically and independently developed for this exhibit. B.A. students must complete at least one upper-level course in the area of study chosen for their Senior Thesis Exhibit. For example: Both Painting I and Painting II are required for students presenting painted works for their Senior Thesis Exhibit. The full-time faculty meets with the students to critique the installation and the work of each individual. The session follows the procedures outlined for the B.F.A. critique session.
The B.A. exhibit may not be taken if a student has not received a grade of C or above in the senior seminar or minor program
