Associate in Fine Arts Degree
Wake Tech Course ID: A10600
Wake Tech’s two-year Associate in Fine Arts (AFA) degree program prepares students to pursue further education, such as a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree, or to enter professional practice. The AFA curriculum focuses on developing students' technical skills, visual observation and material-problem solving.
AFA students take five required classes in studio art and art history:
- ART-114: Art History Survey I
- ART-115: Art History Survey II
- ART-121: 2D Design
- ART-122: 3D Design
- ART-131: Drawing I
In addition, AFA students are encouraged to take additional art electives, such as focused classes in painting, drawing, printmaking, sculpture, digital art, digital photography or non-Western art history. Taking studio classes each semester permits a consistent development of technical and artistic skills and contributes to a diverse portfolio, often required for successful transfer.
The program offers additional opportunities for student engagement, such as the AFA Emerging Artist Exhibition, on-campus exhibits, events, workshops and artist talks through the Visual Art Student Engagement Center (VASE).
