Program details
Overview
This Bachelor of Fine Arts Honours program is a studio-based degree offered through the School of Art. Admission to Honours status is not direct: students first enter the BFA General Program, which requires a portfolio submission along with high school or University 1 standing, and then transfer into the Honours stream after completing 63 credit hours in the General Program with a minimum grade point average of 2.5 (C+). The Honours degree totals 123 credit hours over four years and combines advanced studio practice across multiple mediums with complementary art-history and academic coursework. Access to fourth-year Honours studio courses requires 15 credit hours of Studio courses at the 3000 level, and all Senior Studio courses must be completed at the University of Manitoba. The program suits students seeking concentrated, advanced studio training beyond the General BFA.
