Letter from the President The Art Institute of Houston
Welcome to The Art Institute of Houston! Our faculty, staff, and students all share a common bond: creativity, dedication, and a commitment to excellence in their endeavors. We all take great pride in the fact that our Art Institute is a wonderful place to teach, collaborate, and learn. I am confident that if you dedicate yourself to your chosen program and craft you will also be instilled with that same sense of pride in The Art Institute but more importantly pride in yourself and your accomplishments.
Our faculty--working professionals and seasoned educators--share their depth and breadth of knowledge and experience to prepare you for the rigors of the workplace. We foster a collaborative environment that promotes artistic freedom and challenges each of us to continue to grow personally and professionally.
Our general education offerings have been carefully chosen to complement the core curriculum. General education courses develop communication skills, stimulate creativity and originality, and help you embrace global perspectives and cultural diversity. These courses will enhance your work in your program of study, and most importantly, will cultivate the intellectual curiosity for you to thrive as an active lifelong learner.
Our commitment to our students extends beyond graduation. As a member of The Art Institutes system of schools, graduates continue to connect to The Art Institutes socially and professionally throughout their lives as they join more than 200,000 alumni from Art Institutes schools nationwide. We would be honored to have you among the ranks of our alumni, and that journey for you begins on day one.
Our success as a school is measured by your success and we take that very seriously. We have resources to help you at every turn and through every challenge. I encourage you to commit to your educational and career success and to ask for help anytime you need it. You can also help ensure your success by taking an active role in your education and dedicate yourself to attending each class session. We want you to create, learn and grow with us and we are so grateful that you have chosen us as your partner to continue your educational journey.
Sincerely,
Harvey M. Giblin, M. Ed. President
