Art Education

Leading to PK-12 certification in Art Education, the Art Education Concentration is a comprehensive program that prepares teacher candidates to be reflective practitioners. We embrace the ideal of teacher as artist so students in this concentration receive solid grounding in a variety of studio disciplines, art history, and professional education.

Ceramics

Ceramics at Anderson University is about working intently with clay, transforming materials with fire, and exploring new objects and expressions. Students create utilitarian pottery, dynamic ceramic sculpture, and everything in between. Along the way they learn basic and advanced handbuilding and wheel-throwing techniques, glaze creation, and how to fire kilns. Students leave with the skills and knowledge they need to continue working as successful artists and craftspeople, or prepared for higher education.

The Graphic Design Concentration is a blend of disciplined training, creative expression, and professional exploration. With a sense of aesthetics, personal and professional ethics, and message clarity, students will utilize visual and verbal forms of graphic design to convey ideas and information. Students will also explore and use new and emerging technology as a vehicle of effective communication and as a means for the invention of expressive form. A professional internship is required of all students for entering the design industry.
