Degree for students planning to transfer to a four-year
institution and pursue advanced studies in Elementary Education.
Courses are designed to provide the initial foundational program
to prepare qualified teaching and related personnel for the
public school system. This degree also meets current mathematics
standards for employment as a paraeducator.
Students should consult the catalog of the institution to which
they expect to transfer and should select appropriate courses in
consultation with their advisor.
The program course requirements are presented in sequence.
Part-time students and others who cannot follow this sequence
