The B.S. program in Art Education
provides you with dynamic, hands-on, career preparations to teach art with
licensure and non-licensure options. The program offers you a wealth of
opportunities to learn how to teach art in schools and community settings. You
will work closely with art education faculty, mentoring teachers, and K-12
students. The Art Education curriculum is rich with studio art courses and
creative opportunities to prepare you as a teaching-artist. You will become knowledgeable
of diverse art media techniques and processes, art history, and art inquiry
methods necessary to teach students and guide your own creative practices. The
Art Education K-12 Teacher Licensure Concentration provides art education
majors with career and graduation choices, including a minor in Secondary
Education, required for licensure. Working full-time in K-12 classrooms with
mentoring teachers during the Residency 2 semester provides time-intensive,
supervised teaching experiences for preservice teachers to build confidence in
their teaching and assessment abilities, hone best teaching practices, and
develop effective methods for managing K-12 students, art materials, and
equipment in art classroom environments.
