Undergraduate Teacher Education Programs

The undergraduate teacher education program provides students with foundational knowledge in general education and professional education coupled with four semesters of field experiences. The combination of academic theory and clinical practice provides a grounded experience as students develop into teachers who exemplify professionals who are competent, collaborative and reflective. These bachelor’s degree programs prepare a student for the Kansas teacher licensure exams required by the State of Kansas for application for a teacher license or endorsement. 

For those who currently possess a bachelor's degree and have an interest in teaching, we have alternative certification programs. 

• Early Childhood Unified Residency: for those with a bachelor's degree outside of education who wish to teach birth - 3 grade. 
• High Incidence Alternative Certification (Pilot Program): for paraprofessionals with a bachelor's degree outside of education who wish to teach special education. 
• Transition to Teaching (T2T): for those with a bachelor's degree in the subject they wish to teach.
