Degree and Teaching License requirements:
Students must meet degree and licensure requirements in place
at the time they obtain formal admission to the teacher education program
Students seeking a teaching license will normally complete courses in
three areas: general education courses, professional education courses,
and specialty courses appropriate for a specific professional license.
Bachelor of Education (B.Ed.) in Early Childhood - Late Childhood
Grades K-6 (Elementary)
The K-6 teaching program prepares students to teach in kindergarten
through sixth grade classrooms. The licensure program is organized so
that students are able to complete a second license in one of five areas
at the same time they complete preparation for the K-6 license. These
licensure areas include:
Birth-Grade 3
Middle School (Grades, 5-8) in:
English/Language Arts
Mathematics
Social Studies
As a final option, students may complete coursework leading to a provisional
license in Adaptive Special Education K-6. Candidates for degrees and
licenses in these areas are advised by the Faculty of the Department of
Education. See an advisor for specific licensure requirements or visit
the Education Department website.
