Bachelor of Science in Education Degree with a Major in Elementary Education (K-6)

Pittsburg State University

The Pittsburg State University Elementary Education program focuses on hands-on experience in classrooms with award-winning elementary teachers. Our professors teach students how to bring their passion for teaching to the classroom in order to become the teachers that students will remember for the rest of their lives. Majors in Elementary Education (K-6) devote the greater portion of their work during the first two years to Pitt State Pathway courses. The work of the last two years consists of continued academic coursework at the upper level and professional courses and experiences. The candidate’s professional education program culminates in the senior year with the internship semester and the professional semester, which includes yearlong, off-campus student teaching. Candidates participate in over 1,000 hours of clinical/field experiences throughout their program.
