Early Childhood/Middle Childhood Certification to Masters Program
For those who already have a bachelor’s degree and are now pursuing a teaching license, your studies are divided into two areas of concentration:
- Early Childhood/Middle Childhood Major courses – prepare students in an area of academic concentration including the sequence of professional education courses including fieldwork and student teaching
- General studies – outlined by the Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction
General studies requirements possibly may be fulfilled by coursework completed for your bachelor’s degree. Some of the courses included in the professional education sequence may be taken for graduate credit and may be applied toward Mount Mary’s Master of Arts in Education program upon the completion of certification.
An advisor will help you select an appropriate combination of courses to meet these requirements.
While it is not required by the Department of Public Instruction for this licensure area, it is recommended that Early Childhood/Middle Childhood teacher education students select a teaching minor.
