Abstract
Teaching art is one of the most important issues from childhood to adulthood. How art is taught and what topics and categories should be considered in this education is so important that it has led to the formation of an independent field under the title of art education at the world level. Meanwhile, its vacancy and the great need for the presence of this field in Iran are visible. This article is to compare the curriculum of art education at the master's level among the eighteen universities of USA, Canada, UK, Germany, India, Singapore, UAE and South Africa. The research method is comparative and the data has been collected through the library and documentary method and by referring to the websites of selected universities. The research question is: How is the curriculum of art education, master's degree in other countries? What common and non-common courses are offered for this field? The result shows that the total number of courses available in eighteen selected universities is eighty-eight courses. Seventeen common courses are taught in these universities. The most used courses include: thesis, research method, art education curriculum, seminar, art education basics, contemporary issues in art education, educational technology and new media, historical-social basics of art education, art history, field studies in art education, (Museum-school), various topics in art education, internship and workshop.
