Department of Visual Arts at Cal State Fullerton

Minor in Art

Twenty-four units with a grade of C or better are required for a minor in art; a minimum of 12 units are to be in upper division courses in residence. A basic course in each of the following areas is required: (1) art history, theory, analysis and criticism; (2) design; (3) drawing and painting; and (4) crafts.

Recommended courses to meet the "basic courses" requirement are: (1) Art 201A or B; (2) Art 103 or 104; (3) Art 107A or B; (4) Art 106A or 205A. Completion of these courses will provide a reasonable foundation for entry into upper division courses. Those students planning to qualify for a standard teaching credential specializing in elementary or secondary teaching with art as a minor must obtain approval from the Art Department.
