Art Teacher Education (BA)
The Art Teacher Education program prepares students to teach art in grades K-12.
Admission to and continued enrollment in the Educator Preparation Program (EPP) require students to meet established academic and professional standards, including minimum GPA and professional disposition requirements. Students are responsible for maintaining these standards throughout their program of study. Because Educator Preparation Program policies are periodically reviewed and updated to reflect institutional, state, and accreditation requirements, students are encouraged to contact the School of Education for the most current EPP Handbook, which contains all admission, progression, retention, and completion policies.
