Education for Arts Students

The Education for Arts Students Minor is a great opportunity to follow your passions and interests in the arts while developing your skills as an educator.

This program will give you a solid footing in the basics of pedagogy and could act as a starting point towards a B.Ed. degree. You will take courses on the philosophy of education, policy issues related to education, equity and education, and more.

This minor doesn’t qualify you to enter the teaching profession, but it serves as an excellent introduction to issues in education while you pursue your interests within the arts.

Accepted international credentials

Applicants are reviewed on their high school transcript with particular emphasis on yearly averages and results in prerequisite subjects (prerequisite subjects must have been completed during the last two years of high school).
