DEGREES
The Art Education Program promotes the idea that art teaching is a lifelong creative practice. Our students are professionally prepared for teaching careers in and out of schools, museums, community sites, and through their own artistic practice and scholarly work. We offer a BFA and MA path to obtain a pre-k to 12th grade license for teaching art in Illinois and 46 other States. Our graduate students (MA, MEd, and PhD) become thought leaders at the intersections of teaching, art, and research; working as authors, curators, professors, activists, community organizers, and artists all over the world.
DEGREES
Why are the objects that we call “works of art” made? Who makes them? Who sees them? What functions do they serve? What kinds of meaning have they offered to viewers in the past? What kinds of meaning can they have for us now? Questions like these are central to the study of art history.
DEGREES
