ABOUT THE COLLEGE AND THE SCHOOL

A Message from the Dean:

The College of the Arts is a destination of choice for students seeking the highest quality training in the visual and performing arts.

We take great pride in our role as a college of regional focus with national impact:

locally, the College serves as an academic and cultural resource for the community; nationally, our alumni contribute to the thriving creative economy as artists, educators, performers, and professionals.

We are leaders in arts education, marked by our continuous national accreditation in all four areas - Dance, Music, Theatre, and Visual Arts.

Part of this rich history of excellence is underscored by our faculty, who encourage the artistic achievement of their students in an academically rigorous environment that also celebrates their individuality.

The college is home to one of the largest theatre programs in the state with an emphasis in technical theatre, providing the industry with numerous workforce-ready theatre technicians.

Our Visual Arts complex is home to one of only a few large, comprehensive art programs in the Cal State system, distinguishing itself from other campuses.

The School of Music:

It is our mission, and the mission of our entire College of the Arts, to provide an environment that encourages individual achievement and artistic expression.

Music is key to what makes us human—an expression of our creative beings.

In the School of Music, we daily and collectively engage our creative humanity as performers, composers, researchers, teachers, and students.

Together, we collaborate, inspire, discover, reflect, mentor, innovate, and create.
