The USC Roski School of Fine Arts provides a well-balanced education in the creative, interpretive and critical processes essential to practicing art. In lectures, seminars, studio work and one-on-one meetings, faculty and students energetically challenge fixed notions of art and culture. The distinguished, dedicated faculty comprises leading artists and professional designers exhibiting in museums and galleries throughout the world. The Roski School offers B.F.A. and B.A. degrees for undergraduate studies and Master degrees in Fine Arts and Public Art Studies.

Approximately 300 undergraduate art majors and 50 graduate students attend the Roski School, which also welcomes in their classes over 1,000 USC liberal arts and science majors interested in art. As the first art school in southern California (1895), the USC Roski School of Fine Arts is committed to furthering the frontier of artistic exploration. The Roski School's growing Intermedia area is devoted to the expanding role of technology in the visual arts, maintaining a strong foundation in a variety of artistic expressions and encouraging students to discover their individual creative voices.
