The Art Department also offers a minor in Studio Art, which requires a minimum of 18 credits (12 credits must be taken at The College of New Rochelle) and must follow the requirements as listed under the minor section below. The faculty of the Art Department consists of five full-time members supported by adjunct faculty members from the professional art community.
