It helps students develop their artistic skills through studio work and creating art.	BA is more theory-based, including history and critical analysis of art. BA in Fine Arts, on the other hand, is more theory-based. It includes studying the history of art, its critical analysis, and the cultural aspects of art, with less emphasis on practical creation.
