Unique major for art students

By Rebecca Watters

The arts administration major is a unique opportunity for students. According to artsadministration.org, UK is one of only 38 U.S. universities to offer the degree to undergraduates.

An arts administration major prepares students for management positions in art-related career fields. UK offers the major for undergraduates, as well as an online master’s degree.

“We are one of the oldest undergraduate programs in the country at 28 years old,” program director Rachel Shane said. “We’re unique for just providing this major.”

The master’s program currently includes 55 students from 28 different states and five countries.
