Aspiring PreK-12 visual arts teachers and community arts educators pursue the Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA) in Art Education program. This program builds comprehensive expertise through combined Studio Arts and Art Education coursework, utilizing diverse 2D, 3D, digital, and graphic design mediums. Participants develop an educational philosophy that blends artistic practice with art history, visual culture, critical analysis, educational theory, social justice principles, and community art initiatives. The curriculum additionally explores how interdisciplinary art education approaches can shape societal perspectives and actions. Complementary courses from the College of Education and Human Development provide essential training for developing skilled art instructors.
The BFA in Art Education offers significant benefits, requiring about 15 additional credits compared to standard Bachelor of Science education degrees. The program's stronger studio focus enhances qualification for specialized art teaching internships. This artistic proficiency also benefits graduates when pursuing employment opportunities or considering advanced studies. The BFA credential enables graduates to apply for both Master of Fine Arts programs in visual arts and Master of Arts programs in art education.
