Our early childhood education program equips you to set children up for a lifetime of achievement. This interactive, NAEYC-accredited degree provides practical development and learning techniques that prepare you for diverse classroom environments.
Following NAEYC standards, the program explores foundational early childhood concepts through courses including:
Cognitive development.
Early growth patterns.
Contemporary practices.
You'll gain real-world experience before graduation through our Reggio-inspired Child Development Lab, where you'll guide preschoolers' social, emotional, and physical growth.
Beyond classroom instruction, the program requires several fieldwork placements at locations like preschools, daycare facilities, and home-based childcare programs.
