An Education major leads to state-issued teaching licensure. Programs typically require a content-area major or concentration (math, English, science, social studies, foreign language, special ed, or elementary K–6) plus an education-specific sequence (educational psychology, classroom management, assessment, methods, and a semester of supervised student-teaching). The licensure path varies by state, most require passing Praxis I and Praxis II content-area exams.
Graduates work in public K–12, charter schools, private schools, and international schools. The MSEd or M.Ed is a common follow-on degree for teachers seeking specialty certification or administrative pathways.
