This Arts in Education - Teaching License degree from University of Minnesota is a graduate-level, full-time program integrating educational theory with classroom practice. Beginning teachers will be ready to implement a contemporary, comprehensive art education program based on current theory and practice in the field.

Timeline

The program is sequential and each required course is offered once per academic year, beginning in the summer semester, and can be completed by the end of the next summer (12 months). Summer semester courses are offered in shorter two to three week overlapping intervals meeting in both the morning and afternoon. Each of our three fall courses meets once a week from 4:40-7:20 p.m. for 15 weeks. Six weeks of student teaching at the elementary level and six weeks in middle or high school is usually completed in the Spring semester (with summer semester in year-round schools being a possibility for working teachers).
