Become a portrait painter with a distinctly feminist perspective. Or a social activist trained in performance strategies. Or a biologist with deep expertise in 3D modeling. SMFA’s Combined Degree program leads to both a Bachelor of Fine Arts and either a Bachelor of Arts or Bachelor of Science degree—a combination that yields academic and creative skill sets that will serve you well no matter where your journey takes you.

As a combined-degree student, you’ll spend your first year exploring both the fine arts and liberal arts and sciences curriculum. You’ll make the most of both campuses, expand your social and intellectual horizons, and start to imagine where you’d like to go with your combined degree.

It’s a unique and customized approach that prepares students for a range of different art careers.

Review boards are an essential component of the SMFA experience. At each board, you’ll present a semester’s worth of work to a group of faculty and student peers. You’ll receive valuable feedback on your work and the ideas at its core, and have the opportunity to consider how your art-making connects to your liberal arts and sciences studies. It’s an intense but highly rewarding process that helps you better articulate and refine your artistic vision and direction.

Our Senior Thesis Program is a year-long capstone course that requires intensive research, writing, and art-making and is only open to students in their final year. You’ll work closely with peers, visiting artists, and core faculty to clarify your artistic goals and deepen your practice. The year culminates in a major public exhibition.
