Academics
Kendall has undergraduate programs in Art Education, Art History, Digital Media, general Fine Art, Furniture Design, Graphic Design, Illustration, Industrial Design, Interior Design, Metals/Jewelry Design, Painting, Photography, and Sculpture/Functional Art. Most first-year students take a selection of common "foundation" classes and introductory courses in their major, along with some general Humanities, Science, and Art History classes. Later years' studies consist primarily of studio classes in the student's major field and related electives, and additional general education classes.
The graduate programs include an MFA in Fine Art, an MAE (Master of Art Education) and an MBA with a focus on design issues.
Dual enrollment for advanced high school students is available. A variety of non-credit classes for both children and adults are also offered to the community.

Famous quotes containing the word academics:
“Almost all scholarly research carries practical and political implications. Better that we should spell these out ourselves than leave that task to people with a vested interest in stressing only some of the implications and falsifying others. The idea that academics should remain “above the fray” only gives ideologues license to misuse our work.”
—Stephanie Coontz (b. 1944)
“Our first line of defense in raising children with values is modeling good behavior ourselves. This is critical. How will our kids learn tolerance for others if our hearts are filled with hate? Learn compassion if we are indifferent? Perceive academics as important if soccer practice is a higher priority than homework?”
—Fred G. Gosman (20th century)
