Program overview

What Long Island University Post says about their program:

The 120-credit dual certification Bachelor of Science program in Adolescence Education: Social Studies and Students with Disabilities prepares a new generation of social studies teachers to cultivate and enhance student success. This program equips candidates with the skills, knowledge and foundation to motivate middle and high school students at various skill levels to learn the fundamentals of history, economics, politics and culture. This program includes a minimum of 150 hours of field experiences in middle and high school, typically completed within required fieldwork. Candidates also complete supervised practice teaching in actual classrooms at two grade levels, allowing them to observe certified teachers, interact with students, and understand the adolescent mindset as it relates to understanding issues related to social issues. Candidates who successfully complete this bachelor's programs and pass all required NYS teacher certification exams will be eligible for two initial certifications when the BS is awarded. This program is jointly offered between the Teaching and Learning Department and the Social Sciences Department.
