What will you study?
In the Visual Arts Program, students gain broad exposure to a variety of techniques and theories through foundation to advanced studio classes, art history and art theory classes. During the course of study, students develop skills in painting, drawing, sculpture, installation, performance, computer art and video.
The Visual Arts program develops students’ critical awareness and cultivates the investigation of the social, cultural and historical perspectives affecting the creative process. Students enhance their visual literacy and develop the confidence to create a personal art practice within a rapidly changing art environment.
The structure of the major is modeled on those of distinguished universities in the U.S. and the U.K., allowing students to strive not only for academic but also for professional excellence. The faculty is composed of professionals highly trained in their disciplines, with diverse backgrounds, whose expertise can help students develop their skills and apply their learning in society.

Academic Societies
ACG’s Academic Societies offer students the opportunity to engage and collaborate with faculty in an academic discipline, attend lectures and seminars and participate in excursions and a wide range of activities that provide deeper engagement in a particular subject area.
Accounting and Finance Society
The mission of the Accounting & Finance Society is to respond to the needs of the accounting and finance major/minor students. The Society’s main focus is to provide academic support to its members and serve as an informal link between the students and the Accounting and Finance Department.
The Accounting & Finance Society has a long tradition in organizing academic events, such as lectures, panel discussions, seminars and field trips. These events expand students’ horizons by linking the theoretical knowledge gained through coursework with the practical perspective offered by leading practitioners in business.
The Society also organizes fun events, like bake and memorabilia sales, to raise funds for various projects.
