Major in Art Education

Course Requirements (pdf)

Go to the Art Ed Checksheet section for a detailed listing of all courses required as an art ed major, as well as advising guidelines and a typical program worksheet. It is imperative that you look at this section from upon your arrival in UVM and consult as you select courses.

The University requires 124 credits to graduate.

A minimum 3.0 cumulative GPA is required for the degree with licensure endorsement.

30 of the last 45 credits of a degree must be completed in residence at UVM.

ItÕs your responsibility to make sure all your requirements are met in time for intended graduation. Check your CATS Report (see page 6) and plan ahead with your advisor. Be organized, think ahead, make the most of your time and experience as many arteducational opportunities as possible.

Race & Culture may be combined with specific English Lit classes for requirement fulfillment. Be sure to check with the CESS office or your advisor for more information.

If you wish to fulfill a General Ed requirement with a course that is not listed under acceptable courses, you may fill out a Course Equivalency Form which can be found at CESS Student Services Office.

Take a wide variety of studio art classes, ranging in as many different mediums as possible (see the Art Education Checklist for specific requirements). That being said, it wouldnÕt hurt to pick a medium you enjoy and take courses in that medium at the introductory, intermediate, and advanced levels. Come senior year, there is an option of a Senior Seminar which can only be taken if a 200 level art class has been taken in the past. Also, if you are serious about continuing with a medium and you have exhausted all courses offered, you can request a specific faculty member in the Art Department todo an independent study with you (if the faculty agrees, you and the faculty member will have to fill out an Independent Study form, available in the Art Dept.).
