Notes:

All students seeking elementary teacher certification will complete a baccalaureate degree in Interdisciplinary Studies. There is no major in Secondary Education. All students seeking secondary certification (except those preparing to teach physical education or health) will major in an academic discipline other than education (i.e., mathematics, English, computer science, biology, etc.) and take appropriate coursework for teacher certification in the College of Education and Human Development.
