what could i do with a bachelors in fine arts?

Question

will i be able to get a job or will i have to be a highschool teacher or a starving artist

Answer 1

Dude....those of us with BA's can do anything we want. My history degree...wow the places I have been when everyone told me that it would never amount to anything. Your BA tells the world that you can think about anything and everything.

Go forth and conquer.

Answer 2

With the work fields narrowing into areas other than fine arts, you may just have to be that school teacher, so go for a masters and the a PHD and teach at a university.

Actually a BA isn't so bad, you can use it in just about any field you want. You are very well round in your education and should be able to talk your way into any job and profession, other than doctoring, and lawyering...that stuff.

Who knows perhaps the BA will be back in style soon.

Answer 3

I don't think that a BA in Fine Arts will make U a teacher. You need to get credentials, that is, another 45 units or more. In the meantime you can work for sure but from bottom work your way up. Try to get a master in FA..We are in a competitive world sir.
Good luck!

Answer 4

Only about 1 1/2% of BFA graduates work in an art related career. If art is your passion then go on for a MFA. You could then teach in a college.

Answer 5

You can do anything with a BFA. I know because I have one.

The only thing a bachelors degree tells your employer is that #1 you can learn and #2 you finish what you start.

Sky is the limit!
