AT UNI, there is a long tradition of exemplary undergraduate teaching by skilled and caring professors, not by inexperienced graduate students. The quality of exchange and personal interaction between students and professors is a particularly strong aspect of teaching in the UNI Department of Art. Differing points of view, divergent styles, and a wealth of methodologies meet in a single classroom. Students benefit from individual contact with their teachers who are also active practitioners in fine arts, design arts, art history, art criticism or art education. Below are two lists of department personnel. The first is a list of the administrative staff, the people who are responsible for the day to day operation of the department. The second is a list of full-time UNI art faculty, organized by the subject areas in which they usually teach. In addition to the teachers listed here, each year the faculty also includes (as needed) a small number of part-time or adjunct instructors.

Experience, professionalism, and commitment. These days, those are hard to find, but they are exactly the traits that I saw in the faculty and staff at the UNI Department of Art. Every teacher with whom I worked expressed a sincere interest in the students, and offered insights into not just their particular course, but also shared their knowledge about real world standards and expectations. I can't say enough to praise the quality of my experience at UNI. John Dopita BFA ‘94 graphic designer Florida
What I liked most about the UNI Department of Art was getting to know the other students and professors—I formed genuine friendships that I will have for a long time. Erich Bonzer BA 2001 senior web designer Spinutech Cedar Fallshttp://www.spinutech.com/shapeimage_6_link_0
The art faculty at UNI not only encourages students, but they also challenge them to grow personally as well as artistically. As a result, the graduates from that school are consistently strong, creative professionals who do well when they transfer into the work force and the world.
