Miami University Department of Art

We welcome ambitious and motivated students, and foster their curiosity and freedom to experiment along their creative and intellectual paths.

We offer diverse opportunities to experience, learn, and create within a rigorous and supportive environment that prepares students for successful professional lives.

We are an internationally-recognized teaching institution that balances a high level of research with intense and relevant student/faculty engagement, including interdisciplinary, entrepreneurial, and international experiences.

We provide high-quality facilities including current technology, and rich, original collections in our Art Museum and galleries that complement our four degree programs.

We are a community — engaging our division, the university and beyond with inclusive and innovative programs and creative research.

We offer a unique set of programs that study the arts from varying perspectives, balancing the traditional with contemporary ways of making and understanding.

We are a Department of Art within the context of a liberal arts institution, giving our students life-long skills of communication, writing, and critical thinking, to prepare them for success in college and beyond.
