A bachelor's degree in this subject is the first university level for applicants who want an undergraduate route into arts, design, and architecture. It suits students who want a full degree rather than a diploma or a master's entry point, and who are choosing a starting route for later professional or postgraduate study.

The universities in this group are public, so the main decision is less about ownership and more about location and programme fit. The institutions span different city settings, including Beijing, Changchun, Chengdu, and Dalian, so applicants can weigh a capital-city environment against other urban settings. Fee information is only available for some programmes, so where tuition is missing, confirm the cost directly with the university.

Before applying, verify the specific programme name, tuition, entry requirements, language of instruction, and application deadline for the degree you want. You should also confirm whether any portfolio, interview, or subject background is required, because those details are not provided here and can change the decision completely.
