The College of the Arts at Montclair State University offers more than 50 majors, minors and concentrations in art and design, television and digital media, communication studies, dance, music and theatre. Twice designated as a Center of Excellence by the state of New Jersey, the college maintains a commitment to quality programs, providing professional training and education for students seeking careers as practitioners, educators, public servants and managers of the arts. Our faculty includes working composers, designers, fine artists, actors, musicians, directors, choreographers, conductors, broadcasters and communication specialists, including Fulbright, Guggenheim and Howard award winners. What's more, because we are only minutes from Manhattan, internationally recognized guest artists know the College well and come year after year to direct master classes, perform in staged productions, conduct student ensembles and teach what it takes to succeed in the arts. Our alumni provide living proof of the value of a College of the Arts degree. Graduates have gone on to pursue successful careers as artists, performers, educators and administrators, many of whom have come back to share their knowledge and contacts with current students.
