Art Education
The Art Education program offers a 30-hour MA degree with approximately one half of the course work being conducted on a tutorial basis. Requirements are designed to accommodate the student's background, professional interests and studio preferences. Accordingly, students are encouraged to personalize their study, through a re-examination and critical exploration of the content area. Studio involvement is closely aligned with the M.F.A. program in terms of faculty committee membership, weekly critiques and contemporary art criticism. Completion of the program culminates in the design and production of a Master's project, which may take a variety of forms within the context of education and the practice of teaching.
