As a result, they learn to think independently and become leaders who solve problems throughout their lifetimes. When you nurture the minds and characters of CAP students, you are investing in the future of transformational industries. It’s no wonder that professional designers and planners surveyed by the website “Design Intelligence” consistently rank our programs among the “most hired” and “most admired.”

A CAP education is resource intensive, requiring the right equipment and classroom support, the best faculty, and meaningful partnerships with working professionals. To stay on top, we need the involvement of all CAP supporters through Our Call to Beneficence, Ball State’s comprehensive fundraising campaign.

Real-world learning is essential for our students: in a fast-paced industry like ours, an education that only provides the fundamentals would put our graduates at a disadvantage. We’re committed to ensuring that they leave Ball State with experiences that put them in positions of trust, responsibility, and success—from day one. For that to continue to be true, we need the involvement of all CCIM supporters through Our Call to Beneficence.

The College of Fine Arts empowers students to be creative thinkers, citizens, and problem solvers. Students experience a top-notch education here, with nationally recognized faculty members, high-profile alumni, and a curriculum that focuses on collaboration, empathy, inclusion, and hard work.

We prepare students for many futures and multiple career paths in and beyond the arts. But as the arts evolve, so must the college.

Our students are eager to change the world, but we must give them the tools to do so, and that takes investment. The College of Fine Arts has begun to raise $60 million as our part of Our Call to Beneficence. To do so, we are going to need the involvement of all CFA supporters to help keep the arts alive.

The 17 academic departments in the College of Sciences and Humanities share one foundational principle: they expand humankind’s understanding of ourselves and of the world around us, from the innermost corners of the human mind to the outermost limits of the known universe. 

Powerful changes happen when you seek a better understanding. You can cure diseases. You can reconcile differences between people. You can repair the Earth. You can right past wrongs. You can heal hearts in both the literal and metaphorical senses. The search for understanding takes continued investment as new challenges and opportunities emerge.
