The school offers the Bachelor of Science in Education degree program, with a major in early childhood education and secondary education tracks in biology, English, history, and math.
Additionally, Macon State soon will introduce a Bachelor of Science in education with a major in middle grades. The program will be the nation’s first undergraduate degree to give students the opportunity to earn dual certification in general and special education to teach children in the fourth through eighth grades. The College will launch the degree program in fall 2009. Additional details about this program may be found in the news release here.
The early childhood education program permits graduates to be eligible for dual certification in early childhood and special education. Special emphasis is being provided in differentiated instruction so our graduates know how to customize their teaching methods for students with a variety of abilities, including those with learning disabilities.
The secondary education tracks permit biology, English, history or math graduates to be eligible to teach in high school. Additional information about these tracks may be found by following this link or on the web pages of the School of Arts and Sciences.
