Mission  
School mission Otis College of Art and Design prepares diverse students of art and design to enrich our world through their creativity, their skill and their vision. Otis is a four year Bachelor of Fine Arts program that offers majors in seven areas: Communication Arts, Digital Media, Architecture/Landscape/Interiors, Fashion Design, Fine Arts, Interactive Product Design and Toy Design. The cornerstone of the Otis program is the first year curriculum, which is called Foundation. Students from all majors take the core studio classes: drawing and composition, figure drawing, two and three dimensional design. In these integrated classes students build the art, design and creative skills and vocabulary that are the "foundation" of their subsequent studies and future work. Students enter their sophomore year well prepared to begin work in their major. Graduate programs offered in fine arts, public practice, writing and graphic design.
