About Department of Art Education
College of Education. It was established in the academic year 2024–2025 and follows the university’s “single-department” policy. All faculty members participate in its programs, which adopt a comprehensive scientific, artistic, intellectual, emotional, and social framework, grounded in global cultural thought. This approach continues through the emergence of the perspective that views art education as a branch of the humanities concerned with exploring the nature and development of human life, culminating in the concept of digital art education, which incorporates digital technology (cyber art) and its applications as a foundation for teaching committed art education. This aligns art education with contemporary developments at the level of curriculum and the behaviors associated with this content, embodied through sensory perception, verbal information, understanding, analysis, criticism, measurement, evaluation, appreciation, and artistic production.
Department Vision
The Department of Art Education aspires to be a leading academic beacon dedicated to nurturing artists and teachers who carry a faithful and committed artistic message. Through conscious artistic expression, they reflect Islamic values and moral principles, revive religious heritage, and embody the spirit of the Hussaini renaissance. This mission seeks to unite beauty with faith, serving the Ummah and society through an authentic vision rooted in the School of Ahl al-Bayt (peace be upon them).
