The Department of Art embraces teaching and learning at the intersection of multiple disciplines to foster curiosity and innovation. Integrating new technologies, the department extends traditional connections of art and design in concept and form to enhance the visual, social, and cultural environment. Academic rigor and artistic expression are united through unique programming and alternative course structures that support creativity, entrepreneurship, and analytical thinking. Rowan University is defining new educational relationships compatible with and extending proven approaches that have served artists/designers well throughout history.
