Seaver College's Art Department offers a Bachelor of Arts degree in Art, as well as minors in Art and Multimedia Design. In addition, a Secondary Teaching Credential may be earned through the addition of electives.
The studio art curriculum is designed to foster creative ability and the appreciation of art desirable in any full enlightened human being. There are many opportunities for the competent, creative artist, including careers as a professional artist, teacher of art, craftsman, and designer. Some of these fields require advanced training beyond the bachelor's degree.
In addition to the general education requirements the art major must complete 5 lower- division and five upper-division courses (forty units).
Senior Exhibition: During the senior year, each studio art major will organize and display a major exhibition of work. The senior exhibition will be representative of the student's best work at Pepperdine University.
Permanent Collection: The art faculty makes selections from current work each year to add to a permanent collection of outstanding student work. All work done as a part of class work by regularly enrolled students is the property of the division until released, and the division reserves the right to exhibit or reproduce such work in publications of the University.
The art major should enroll in the typical first-year program as outlined in the catalog, and should take ART 100 and ART 105 the first semester. ART 102 and ART 106 should be taken the second semester.
A student who completes a major in Studio Art should be able to:
A minor in multimedia design is available, emphasizing advanced work in graphic design and multimedia production, including Web page construction and evaluation.

A student can graduate with a bachelor's degree in art and a California Teaching Credential in art by taking the required thirty 34 units in single subject education as part of the student's undergraduate elective courses and passing the California Subject Examination for Teachers (CSET) in art. More information about the credential program can be obtained from the Humanities and Teacher Education Division of Seaver College.
