Requirements for Certification: Art K-12
Students in the Bachelor of Fine Arts (B.F.A.) with Studio Concentration degree program can earn Instructional I teaching certification in Art K-12. This certification provides a skilled background in the technical and historical aspects of art education as a prerequisite to teaching art in grades K-12. The program emphasizes all arts as a means of arriving at aesthetic experiences. Since students are required to take additional Education courses in teacher certification in order to meet certification requirements, additional time may be required to complete the credits needed to earn certification.
