Bank Street College of Education and Parsons The New School for Design offer a collaborative three-summer graduate degree program in Leadership in the Arts, which leads to the Masters of Science in Education.

This program is designed specifically to meet the needs of arts educators, combining studio courses that help to refine and develop art and design skills, with a leadership curriculum that provides participants with the knowledge and skills necessary to succeed as supervisors and administrators in diverse school and community settings.

Drawing on the extensive resources of Parsons The New School for Design, educators are guided through intensive studio courses that emphasize both technical strengths and problem solving, by a faculty of working artists and professional designers. Students draw further inspiration from visits to artists' studios, museums, galleries, and the myriad visual resources of New York City.

The studio portion of the program is complemented by coursework in administration and supervision at Bank Street College of Education, both onsite during the summer term and through a distance learning model during the rest of the academic year.

Future Certification

For those students who have been teaching for at least three years in nursery through 12th grades, the program leads to New York State certification in supervision and administration. Those with provisional certification in art education may apply for permanent certification in art education. Graduates of this program hold positions as public and private school principals, regional art supervisors and administrators, teachers, as well as professional artists and designers.

Bank Street College of Education and Parsons invite all interested candidates to apply for this dynamic program.
