School of EducationWhat is an education studies: elementary education degree with multiple subject credential?
The Bachelor of Arts in Education Studies: Elementary Education with Multiple Subject Credential is an evening degree completion program for transfer students who have started but have not yet completed a four-year undergraduate degree related to education. You will complete the program in two academic years that culminate in fieldwork experience. Those interested in an extended pathway option can speak with their designated academic advisor upon admission. Upon graduation, you will be prepared to teach multiple subjects in the Pre-K-12 elementary school setting.
Why should you major in education studies: elementary education with multiple subject credential at Redlands?
- During student teaching, students are supervised by a cooperating teacher at the school site and a University of Redlands supervisor.
- The use of educational technology is incorporated into all courses, field experiences, and California Teacher Performance Assessment (CalTPA) cycles, as are the theories and skills needed to effectively teach English learners and other diverse student populations enrolled in today’s classrooms.
This teacher preparation program is accredited by the California Commission on Teacher Credentialing (CCTC) and aligns with SB 2042 standards.
We prepare our teachers to be critical thinkers so they don't blindly accept what is given in the education system.
Dr. Mousumi De, Assistant Professor
