Champion the transformative power of visual arts and design. Our students will be the innovative leaders of tomorrow!
As one of the best arts schools in the nation, teaching art has been a vital part of UNT since it was first taught in 1894, only four years after the institution was founded. Cora Stafford, an imaginative leader who served on the faculty and as director for four decades before retiring in 1964, played a major role in guiding the art program to the reputation it maintains today.
CVAD's Fine Arts program is ranked #21 of all public universities in the nation by U.S. News and World Report! Our college's creative, caring and tenacious culture sets the stage for continued excellence to elevate creative ambitions for innovative futures!
