Career Outlook Many of Creighton's B.F.A. and B.A. art graduates pursue advanced study in art history, art, or commercial art. Some intend ultimately to become teachers.
Graduate study is also usually necessary for careers in slide library or art library work.
Some art majors may find employment in art museums or galleries or in related fields, such as arts management, administrative work, or journalism without advanced degrees. There are about 10,000 museums of one kind or another in the United States employing professionals in various tasks like registration, public relations, education, community art programs, curatorial work, and exhibition presentation. Most of these professionals have some graduate background. There are also thousands of private galleries or art collecting and investing institutions in the United States, as well as many art magazines. Acceptance as a Major in Art will be accomplished upon submission of a portfolio usually at the end of the Sophomore year.
