Representative of the first two years in a bachelor degree in elementary, middle, or secondary teacher education the Program has been designed using the NH Department of Education Professional Preparation Programs model and an interdisciplinary curriculum approach. The degree requirements include three categories: 1) General Education; 2) education; and 3) a major within the Liberal Arts.
The General Education component is a coherent and substantive balance in English and literature, science, mathematics, social science, and humanities/fine arts/world language.
