Arts and Community Practice Certificate

The Arts and Community Practice Certificate Program is designed for undergraduate and graduate students who wish to develop a focused concentration on the application of the arts to community development. This is inclusive of groups and families, and addresses all stages of human development. Particular attention will be given to prevention, enrichment, and response to social concerns. 

Program requirements are based on the integration of the theoretical and practical aspects of dance, art education/therapy, and community-based generalist/clinical social work. Requirements include coursework in art education/therapy, dance, and social work totaling at least twelve (12) semester hours with at least three (3) semester hours taken from each program in certificate-approved courses (see school). Students must earn a "B" average in all courses taken for the certificate. An additional requirement is the completion of a major paper or project linking theory and practice. The program of study must be approved by the school. 

Students in the BFA, MA, or MFA programs in Dance must apply through the school. Students must have a minimum 3.0 GPA to be accepted into the certificate program.
