M.A.T. in Art Education

Graduate Art Education

The M.A.T. curriculum is designed to promote excellence of teaching, research and scholarship, and dedication to service. Underlying this excellence is the set of professional standards and competencies that form the foundation for continued growth and development in all areas of education. The program is designed around a professional core of education and content courses that provide a foundation and framework in learning theory, philosophy, pedagogy and research while integrating content. The capstone experience provides the opportunity to demonstrate the translation of theory into practice in a supervised educational setting. Students are expected to develop competencies in critical thinking, collaboration, diversity, leadership research and applied use of technology.
