Teaching For Tomorrow

Many opportunities exist in the education field that do not require teaching certification, and you will learn how to be involved in the life of children and young adults without standing in front of a classroom.

“Education is not preparation for life; education is life itself.”-John Dewey

To fulfill the technological literacy requirement, students must successfully complete EDU/ELE 240 Media and Technology in Education, complete pre-professional courses, and complete two areas of concentration from other education majors.
