WHAT OPPORTUNITIES MIGHT IT LEAD TO?

We live in a visual culture, and studying visual art provides us with a new and informed way of seeing and interpreting the world. Many art students transfer to earn Bachelor’s of Arts/Bachelor's of Fine Arts degrees and then earn Master’s degrees (M.A.) or even the terminal degree of Master’s of Fine Arts (M.F.A) in their given field. Students who pursue degrees in Studio Art are laying a strong foundation for careers in many exciting and creative fields. According to the Creative Economy Report of 2013, published by OTIS College of Art and Design:

1 in 7 wage/ salaried jobs in the Los Angeles County area and 1 in 10 in the state of California are in creative industries.

49% of creative occupations require a bachelor’s degree or higher for an entry-level position
Given the trends, creative industry employment in California will total 719,700 wage and salary jobs in 2017. This will be a 5.6% increase (38,400) since 2012
