Overview

Coursework in the Arts in Education - Professional Studies program at University of Minnesota can be completed in one year as a full-time student or in two years as a part-time student. Courses are scheduled in the summer or evenings for working professionals.

Curriculum

With guidance from faculty advisers, students complete at least 30 semester credits of work in three areas: a core academic program in education, courses specific to the area of art education, and elective courses.

Career Outlook

Teachers with a master's degree are regarded as experts in their field, making you a more competitive job candidate with an MEd
Teachers who have a master's degree will see a roughly $7,000 annual salary increase [Teacher.org ]
Though the salary increase with a master's degree will vary by district and state, Minnesota teachers are on the higher end of the payscale. Median Minnesota teacher salaries were $64,790 and $64,960 for middle school and high school respectively in 2019 [BLS ].
Once a teacher is employed, there is much more mobility that comes with a Master's. Teachers with advanced degrees can be promoted to school administration positions and can become mentors to other teachers based upon specific graduate training.
