History
The Faculty of Fine Arts was instituted in 1967 with programmes in the visual arts, film, music and theatre. The programmes of study combine research and practise and emphasize an interdisciplinary approach. In 1967 it was the only Faculty of Fine Arts at a Canadian university.
Within the faculty there are departments for each of the areas of study. The departments are responsible for budgeting, for policy implementation and for co-ordinating the tripartite functions of the faculty: teaching, research and creative work. In 1974 a Master 's degree was first offered in Visual Arts and by 1983 there were graduate programmes in Art History, Dance, Film & Video, Music, Theatre as well as Visual Arts.
