Coordinating professional education courses with work in liberal arts, graduate research, and a concentration in studio arts that includes emerging digital and alternative media, the MA in Art Education Program offers custom-designed programs of study to meet individual needs. A series of graduate education seminars address historical and contemporary issues in art theory, criticism, and education. Drawing on the wide range of studio departments, nearly half of the program is reserved for work in one or more studio areas including museum studies, liberal arts, or art therapy depending upon the student's particular background and career needs. The independent thesis or graduate project, which is normally completed in two semesters, may take the form of either an academic research paper or a graduate project in an appropriate format. Designed for both established and new teachers, the degree may satisfy credit accrual requirements for permanent certification or lead to other career advancement. Graduates have also found the program relevant to positions in museum education, college (especially junior college) teaching, arts administration, educational media, and other related fields. The degree may also be taken in conjunction with the Certification Program in Art Education, thereby allowing the student to earn a master's degree plus certification. The difference between this combination and the MAT (Master of Arts in Teaching) is the concentration in graduate studio work and the research and thesis required for the MA degree. Fulltime students may complete the MA program in one academic year plus a summer or three semesters. Part-time students may take coursework over as many as five years.
