    It looks the first part of the doument is focused on Fine Art courses and then later there are some communciation design (graphic design) courses.
    There is not even a animation section (if you take a look).
    Just open your eyes...
    For concept art/entertainment design you need drafting skills and you need to train your creativity.
    The first is needed so you can show your work and the second is needed so have something that you can show (that´s just a very, very short version here).
    There are probably useful courses in animation that can be applied for concept art. Storytelling (for creativity) and basic animation (for good dynamic composition) can be useful.

    They are talking about their courses, and I think it´s not really related to concept design (so it´s relevanceis not that big). And there is not one animation course in that list so again no.

    If you take a look here then you could see that you are in the wrong section.

    You are in Art. Character Animation (BFA) is in Film/Video
