Portland-State-University 2020-2021 Bulletin

Art Education: Secondary Education Program

Grades K through 12 in public schools

Students who plan to teach at the middle- or high-school level should complete a bachelor's degree in Art or prescribed art foundation/history courses before applying to the College of Education for teacher training in the graduate program.

Prospective teachers should contact an art adviser or the Art Practice Coordinator in the School of Art+Design to secure a departmental recommendation prior to applying to the COE.

Each student’s program is tailored to meet the requirements of the continuing endorsement license. Although licensure requirements are incorporated into degree programs, changes by the Oregon Teacher Standards and Practices Commission during the life of this catalog may alter the requirements. Applicants for licensure must meet the Commission's requirements in force at the time of the licensure application. Please refer to the College of Education requirements.
