The Foundation Year is an exploration of techniques, ideas, and the
visual vocabulary of artists and designers. Although the work in
each of the major areas of study involves specialized courses, the
same basic principles of art apply. The objective of the Foundation
Year is to provide the basic principles, giving a solid background
of art fundamentals and techniques upon which to build an education
as a professional artist or designer. The techniques and conceptual
and visual skills that are developed in the Foundation Year will
prepare the student for advanced study in their major.
