Art Education Programs

Students wishing to become certified to teach in public schools may pursue either a Bachelor of Art Education or certification within the Master of Art Education at Herron. The Art Education Program of the Herron School of Art and Design is offered in conjunction with the School of Education, and the Indiana Professional Standards Board. These bodies have established certain academic requirements for earning a degree and/or licensure in art education in all grades (K-12) in Indiana.

The Bachelor of Art Education Degree

The Bachelor of Art Education (B.A.E.) Program leads to certification (teaching license) in art education in all grades (K-12) in the state of Indiana. The program features a commitment to practical experience integrated with a strong studio program. Throughout the program, students increase skill and knowledge in the content of art education today, including art history, criticism, aesthetics, studio, and teaching methodology. Students gain experience by teaching school-age students in a variety of programs and settings including Art Talks (surrounding elementary and secondary schools), Visiting Artist: Art to School (Herron Gallery), Saturday School (Herron campus), Indianapolis Museum of Art, Eiteljorg Museum of the American Indian and Western Art, and student teaching. In addition, students observe and participate in art programs and events around the city.

Students enrolled in the Bachelor of Fine Arts degree program at the Herron School of Art and Design may also pursue an All-Grade Indiana State Teachers License in Art. Students wishing to pursue certification need to declare a second major (B.A.E.) and follow the requirements for this degree as well as the B.F.A. Students should meet regularly with advisors from both major areas to ensure efficient completion of both degrees. Transfer students holding a baccalaureate degree and M.A.E. candidates without a teaching license may also pursue certification to teach in the public schools in Indiana. These students must have completed a minimum of 50 credit hours in undergraduate art studio courses, have a 3.0 cumulative grade point average, submit a portfolio of studio work, pass the PreProfessional Skills Test (PPST), and be admitted to the teacher education program in the School of Education at IUPUI.
