Many students choose to become art educators in school settings.
Art's flexible curriculum also can provide interested students with a solid basis for bringing the aesthetic experience to any profession. Art education has attracted students with established careers in such fields as educational administration, media, and business. Professional studies in art also may lead to careers in other fields including art therapy and museum education and management. Students interested in pursuing those possibilities may build collaborative programs within the University that combine studies in psychology, sociology, or history with art education. The University of Minnesota is an equal opportunity educator and employer.
