Dean's Welcome

Dr. Timothy P. Mottet

Welcome to the College of Fine Arts and Communication. We are five schools and departments with one direction—to help students become fine arts and communication professionals. Students acquire knowledge and develop specialized skills by working side-by-side with members of a world-class faculty on their research projects and creative activities. It’s a true partnership. Graduates of our college leave Texas State ready to make significant contributions to their respective professions, families, and communities.   

Together, we serve close to 5,000 undergraduate and graduate majors who study in one three schools (Art and Design, Journalism and Mass Communication, Music) and two departments (Communication Studies, Theatre and Dance).

Regardless of their academic homes, faculty, staff, and students share in three activities:

·      We discover new knowledge through our research,

·      We create new experiences through our art, and

·      We express ourselves through our fine arts and communication.

Through these activities, we empower others and are empowered.

Welcome to the College. Please let us know how we can help you.

 

Sincerely,

Dr. Timothy P. Mottet

Dean, College of Fine Arts and Communication
