The Art Bachelor of Science in Education (BSE) program leads to license to teach Art content courses at the Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction Early Childhood through Adolescence developmental level (all ages in a public school). This program does not require completion of a separate minor. However, students may pursue any minor offered at UW-Whitewater if they wish and this may lengthen their time to graduation. If the student completes a licensable minor, they will be endorsed for licensure in their minor content area as well. Typically, a licensable minor will match the developmental level(s) of the major area.
Students pursuing the Art Bachelor of Art degree with Licensure emphasis program or the Art Bachelor of Fine Arts degree with Licensure emphasis program will also be endorsed for licensure upon successful completion of their program to teach Art content courses at the Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction Early Childhood through Adolescence developmental level (all ages in a public school). For more information on these options, contact the Department of Art and Design (www.uww.edu/cac/art-design).
Students will be required to pass additional assessments prior to student teaching and licensure.
