Postbaccalaureate Program in Studio Art
Overview
Brandeis University's Postbaccalaureate Program in Studio Art is designed for students with a bachelor's degree who are interested in extending their experience in studio art. The program is a one- or two-year residency program that focuses on the disciplines of painting and sculpture.
