Interdisciplinary Studio Art
Forge your own path and discover new ways to define and make art
The Interdisciplinary Studio Art program at Youngstown State University was designed specifically for students with an interest in combining multiple disciplines.
Interdisciplinary practice is a central component of contemporary art. Students enrolled in the program explore and combine a variety of media to investigate and examine relevant topics across studio areas. The program fosters innovative thinking and making for those interested in exploring alternative and experimental methodologies.
Working closely with faculty mentors, students following this concentration have the flexibility to select the upper division coursework that corresponds with their unique vision. Students may elect to combine a minimum of eight upper-level courses in ceramics, digital media, painting, photography, printmaking, or sculpture. This rigorous, multi-media program cultivates independent thinking and intellectual curiosity and provides the knowledge and skills necessary to adapt and respond to a myriad of opportunities in a contemporary creative environment.
Exhibition Spaces
When the time comes for you to display your work, you’ll have the opportunity to exhibit solo, group, or experimental work in the McDonough Museum of Art, Solomon Gallery, or our Student Project Gallery.
