Art Education Program

Art Education is a new undergraduate program at CQUE to empower the student to teach children art, especially music art. The program started to enroll students in 2017. With strong and well-respected faculty, the program takes education and art as the main courses and children's music education as the main direction. By developing its own curriculum, a system with four cores (core competence, core questions, core curriculum, and core course groups) has been established, and a curriculum with six different modules which promote students' personalized development has been formed. The program pays close attention to the teaching reform with practical application as the core and has formed its own distinctive talent training mode.

This program is offered by the School of Preschool Education with strong faculty, of whom over 50% are double-professionally-titled. Supported by the teaching and research platforms such as Chongqing Urban-Rural Coordinative Teacher Education Research Center (Chongqing Key Research Base of Humanities and Social Sciences), Chongqing Institute of Preschool Education, Chongqing Preschool Education Development Center, and Research Institute for Children's Development, the School strives to build the first-class teacher preparation program in the field of children's art education.
