Program Description
Do you want to make a difference in the lives of youth by teaching in grades K-8? Consider majoring in Elementary Education. Students earning their Bachelor of Science in Elementary Education gain firsthand experience in K-8 classrooms from their very first semester and throughout their higher education journey. Through guidance from professional K-8 educators and interaction with their students, Elementary Education majors have opportunities to put theory into practice and build teaching competency and confidence. Their final semester involves full-time student teaching experience in Pima, Santa Cruz or Cochise county schools. Graduates are then eligible to achieve Arizona state teaching certification, making them ready to lead their own classrooms.
