The Associate of Arts with an emphasis in Art at NCCC offers three major areas of study in the visual arts: studio art, pre-graphic design, and art education. Students interested in pursuing a career in arts are encouraged to follow the recommended sequence of courses to stay on track to achieve their goals. All areas of study are designed as transfer programs, intended to be completed at a university or art school.
