The LSU School of Art combines the best of both worlds: the resources and faculty of a large liberal arts institution with the personal attention that comes in a close-knit community. As the largest art department in Louisiana and the fourth-largest major at LSU, the School of Art brings together more than 35 full-time faculty members and 500 undergraduate and graduate students to explore and embr

ace stylistic freedom, while offering specific concentrations and small studio courses that give the School an intimate feel. LSU is an accredited institutional member of the National Association of Schools of Art & Design.
