Bachelor's Degree
Our early childhood education program equips you to set children up for a lifetime of achievement. This interactive, NAEYC-accredited degree program provides adaptable teaching techniques for diverse classroom environments.
Following NAEYC standards, the program explores foundational early childhood concepts through courses including:
Cognitive development.
Early growth patterns.
Contemporary practices.
Practical experience begins before graduation through our Reggio Emilia-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.
