Undergraduate
The undergraduate curriculum focuses on foundational training in artistic and design creation during the first and second years, complemented by basic knowledge in art and humanities. Starting in the third year, students enter a specialized phase based on their interests and strengths, divided into two professional tracks: the first track, "Artistic Creation," emphasizes digital, technological, new media, multimedia, and video art creation; the second track, "Design Creation," focuses on spatial, industrial, and architectural design. The curriculum highlights include:
Practical Creation Training: From foundational to specialized phases, the curriculum offers practical training in art and design. Students are encouraged to enhance their diverse backgrounds and competitive edge by bridging art and design disciplines. Facilities like woodworking/metalworking shops and computer labs are available for hands-on creation.
Contemporary Technology Interaction: Leveraging Yuan Ze University's unique advantages in information technology, the program emphasizes digital multimedia skills. This integration of technology and art allows students to merge tradition with innovation, creating extraordinary and diverse works.

Inspiring Creative Development: Rooted in artistic creation, the curriculum stimulates various creative possibilities, including color experimentation and application, creative aesthetics, form and space development, and innovative bodily expression.
