Course Structure
Undergraduate The degree is most
suitable for those who want to make fine art as a career or pursue
higher studies in related fields of creative nature-designing (film
set, costume, furniture, interior, jewelry, art direction, visualization,
onceptualization, Industrial design, ceramics animation, gallery
managing, curatorial practices, illustration, etc). It offers the
opportunity to discover and develop abilities to help practice independently
as a creative individual and to encourage an attitude towards making
work into play and pleasure.
Our aim is to enable the student to work more independently as
an artist, to generate and elaborate his/her own ideas, and to undertake
further study. Other than studio work, students take part in regular
tutorials and studio seminars (History of Art lectures and seminars
on art from the Renaissance to the present day runs throughout the
year).
The first year is always a foundation year, when all the student
are introduced to the basics of visual art. Second year onwards
they go for their respective specializations-Painting/Sculpture/Applied
Art.
The curriculum comprises core subjects, core electives and optional
subjects. While the core and Core- electives pertain to the department,
the optionals can be drawn from any other streams.Optional may be
chosen from within the department too. All undergraduate degrees
of 4 years duration require a student to complete a minimum of 180
course credits with a minimum of 1.75 CGPA.
Course is divided into Practical and Theoretical subjects For practical
subjects it is a division of 70% continuous
evaluation (weekly class assignments) and 30% end semester portfolio
submission. For theory subjects, it is
50% continuous evaluation (two written assignments) and 50% end
semester written examination.
