Fine Arts Courses Online
Coursework in the Fine Arts provides an overview of the interactions among the arts; the arts and society; an introduction to criticism and aesthetics; technical aspects of the individual arts. Like any other liberal arts subject, the Fine Arts student is well prepared for many professions but explicitly for none. Careers in government, business, education--indeed, any job requiring a general education background, are all strong possibilities. Employment as an art educator or a curator in museums or government agencies requires at least a master's degree. A doctorate is necessary to be a professor of art history; a master of fine arts is needed to teach studio art at the college level. Architecture is another option that requires further, specialized education. Most liberal arts students continue their studio work in graduate school if they seek careers as artists.
