Interdisciplinary Arts

The interdisciplinary arts major at KCAI is an option for students who wish to integrate diverse interests in their work. Students can apply for this major and, if accepted, will work with the department chair to tailor their course work and graduate in interdisciplinary arts.

The major is grounded in making, researching, conceptualizing and contextualizing. It builds on existing artistic technologies while investigating new opportunities offered through digital culture and contemporary social structures.

To be eligible for this major, a student must have completed one semester in a fine arts studio major at KCAI (or equivalent); have a minimum cumulative GPA of 3.0; and demonstrate a focused artistic direction that will thrive within interdisciplinary arts.

Students in this major pursue 15 to 18 credit hours per semester, combining required liberal arts courses with professional practice and studio courses.
