Licensure Notification


This program typically leads to licensure/certification and was designed to meet such qualifications for the state of Utah. Students who are or may be planning to pursue licensure/certification in any other US state or territory may need to meet additional education requirements. This is not a reflection of SUU’s accreditation or quality, as each state and territory regulates their own education requirements for occupational licensure.

Students enrolled in a teacher preparation program may potentially be able to use a Utah educator license to obtain licensure through reciprocity. Additional information may be found through the Department of Teacher Education’s reciprocity table.

Program Learning Outcomes


  • Develop proficient pedagogical abilities to create effective lesson plans and assessments aligned with national and state educational standards.

  • Develop competence in basic 2-dimensional and 3-dimensional studio arts and basic technologies for art-making and teaching.
