The B.S.E. in Middle School Education consists of 120 credit hours and prepares candidates to work as middle school teachers in their selected content areas of language arts, mathematics, science (STEM), and social studies. SAU also offers degrees in math, English, social studies, and foreign language for those seeking secondary licensure. The middle school and secondary education tracks allow candidates to focus on specific content areas of most significant interest.
Additionally, for those who choose the middle school pathway upon degree completion and standard licensure, completers may seek to add secondary licensure to their current license by passing a content exam in an area of choice. Then after passing the test, the completer can add that content area to their standard license.
The Middle and Secondary programs of study are approved by the Division of Elementary and Secondary Education (DESE) and meet Arkansas academic requirements for licensure. Middle and Secondary content areas are critical shortage areas in Arkansas, and employment opportunities are high.
Most courses in these programs are taught in a traditional face-to-face classroom setting on the SAU campus, but several hybrid and online course offerings are provided within the programs. The hybrid and online course offerings help candidates create a more flexible schedule conducive to preparing a personalized plan that meets individual needs.
Pre-candidates must meet the requirements for admission into the Teacher Education Program before advancing in the core and upper-level education coursework. Many unique field experiences are incorporated into courses to enable candidates to work with teacher mentors in public schools. Organized campus-based experiences allow candidates to practice their teaching skillsets. Candidates must meet unconditional admissions requirements to enroll in their final semester of student teaching.
