Many ask "what can I do with an art degree?". You love to draw, paint, and sculpt, but you're not sure how to translate your passion into a career. Pursuing a career as a full-time artist, designer or scholar is possible, if you have the tenacity.
About 62% of artists are self-employed. Many, however, find work with museums, galleries, schools, advertising agencies, magazines, newspapers, and movie studios. Employment of artists and related workers is expected to grow faster than average: 16% through 2016, according to the United States Department of Labor's Bureau of Labor Statistics.
Being an original and creative thinker and problem-solver is valuable in almost any field. At Framingham State University we challenge our students to think along the periphery, to arrive at unique solutions to complex problems. These abilities ensure success in any number of fields after graduation.
