Internships and Experiential Learning

The studio art major has a wealth of opportunities available to participate in each semester. The Sechrest Gallery and Deal Student Gallery maintain rotating exhibitions that highlight student, professional and historically significant works of art. Students may also choose to go on art excursions. Recent trips have included: Asheville, NC; Washington, D.C.; Charleston, SC; Italy; France and Spain. Each summer students can join faculty in traveling abroad to view art and architecture.

A number of our students elect to complete an internship while at High Point University. These experiences provide students with the opportunity to obtain valuable job-relevant experience. Some internships completed by recent art students include:

• North Carolina Museum of Art
