Information for Students

Opportunities for Special Study

Through a consortium arrangement, full-time students may take studio courses at the Memphis College of Art for full credit without payment of additional tuition. Students may also earn 3-6 credits through Rhodes′ European Studies Program. Internships in museum methods are possible through an arrangement with the Memphis Brooks Museum of Art, the Dixon Gallery and Gardens, and other local institutions, where students earn credit in museum methods by working alongside professionals in the field. The Memphis College of Art and the Brooks Museum, both near the campus, along with other educational institutions, galleries, and theatres in the Memphis area, offer a rich variety of exhibitions and films to students throughout the year.

Interdisciplinary Programs

The College offers a number of interdisciplinary programs which draw on faculty from several departments. Students interested in pursuing studies in art have the opportunity to complete minors in American Studies and/or Film Studies, as well as a major in Urban Studies. For further information on interdisciplinary programs at Rhodes, see the section on Interdisciplinary Study in the college catalogue.
