Art Emphasis, Associate of Science Degree

TRANSFER

The Associate of Science (AS) Degree is designed for students transferring to Oregon State University.  Classes that meet Art requirements at OSU are listed below.  Students transferring to the College of Liberal Arts at OSU can earn degrees in Applied Visual Arts, Art, Art History or Fine Arts. Students transferring to Oregon State can also earn degrees in Apparel Design, Graphic Design, or Interior Design, which are part of the College of Business at OSU and thus subject to different requirements – please see your advisor for guidance on preparing for these degrees. Students who wish to transfer seamlessly into any art major at OSU should talk to their advisor as soon as possible about taking classes at both LBCC and OSU through the Degree Partnership Program (www.linnbenton.edu/degree-partnership).

Requirements

General Education Requirements: 43

See the graduation requirements for the Associate of Science degree.

Liberal Arts Core Requirements: 6

See the degree requirements section for a list of Liberal Arts Core courses. These are courses required for degrees in the College of Liberal Arts at OSU. OSU does not allow students to take courses in their chosen discipline to meet this requirement. Although 15 credits are required before graduating from OSU, taking only six prior to transfer to OSU will allow students to complete the Pre-Portfolio Core in Art (below).

Program Requirements: 48

The following term-by-term plan represents a suggested pathway through the curriculum. The exact order in which the courses are taken may vary. Students are advised to speak with a faculty advisor to create a term-by-term plan that best fits their needs.
