Undergraduate Pathway Programs
Whether you want to teach students in elementary, middle, or high school, you have the opportunity to play an important role in the lives of youth, setting the foundation for academic and personal skills.
Our undergraduate programs put you on path to becoming a teacher by preparing you for the classroom, in addition to the tests that are necessary to get your credential. With diversity, inclusion and equity in mind, we bridge educational theory with hundreds of hours of practical fieldwork experience, pre-service with in-service education, and the University with the school community.
