5 reasons to study the Art Baccalaureate.

Have you finished Secondary Education and has the time come when you have to choose the Baccalaureate that will open the doors to your university studies?

Statistics say that only 24% of pre-university students are clear about the university degree they want to study. At 16 years of age, you may already know where to focus your future, but perhaps your preferences are not so clear, and between black and white, you still do not know that there is a large scale of grays, an endless number of studies and professional opportunities that you may not know

We, through this article, want to open your eyes to an even broader palette and it is the one offered by the great unknown Bachillerato de Arte. For you, and for all your questions, we give you five reasons why you should study a Bachelor of Art:

1. More than Fine Arts... Music, plastic arts and design, dance, dramatic art, cinema and audiovisuals, 3D animation, etc., are some of the branches in which you can specialize through this baccalaureate modality.

2. It is a profession. More and more creative, flexible and innovative professionals are in demand. Training in the arts opens the doors to professions such as photography, advertising, cinema, animation, the artistic creation of video games, music, multimedia, digital and graphic design, interior design, fashion design, art historian, cultural manager, etc. We live in a society where the visual is of great importance and that is why professional opportunities are expanding in this field.

3. Art studies are not crafts. Many people have the misconception that artistic studies consist of making daily crafts with a merely decorative nature. But to put an end to the myth, we must understand that carrying out artistic studies takes us to a dimension beyond the general idea. You live in an increasingly visual world and faced with the enormous consumption of images, studying art will lead you to develop critical thinking and a sense of your visual and cultural environment. Likewise, these studies will lead you to understand the processes of production, design and creation of images and objects through various visual, artistic and technical codes, without forgetting the learning of traditional graphic-plastic media and tools and all those current technological media. .

4. A ticket to see the world. Through learning works of art in subjects such as Fundamentals of Art I and II, you will be preparing the best equipment to discover the world, from history, culture, architecture and museums from all corners of the planet.

5. Artistic skills and concerns. Lastly, are you a creative person with imagination and do you consider that you have a special sensitivity and aesthetic vision? Are you passionate about drawing, painting, audiovisual creation, design...? If your answer is affirmative, ARTS IS YOUR HIGH SCHOOL.
