What Western Washington University says about their program:
"The study of computer science education involves both learning about computer science and pedagogy. This program is designed to provide exposure to the breadth of topics required to satisfy K6-12 students’ curiosity about how computers and technology, now so central to daily life, actually work, and how students can personally leverage the learned knowledge to create their own futures. Since knowing computer science alone is not enough to be an effective, inspiring, and inclusive teacher, this major also includes coursework and field experience in the theory and methods of pedagogical content knowledge. This major both employs and creates emerging research on best practices in computer science education.
Teaching computer science to secondary students is a challenge as well as an opportunity. Learning to teach computer science occurs through a variety of means: the study of a wide variety of computer science, pedagogical preparation within a computing context, formal clinical preparation in education, an extended internship, and continual experiences as a student, learner, and problem solver."
Admission to Western is selective. Cumulative academic achievement is the most important factor in the application review process. Level and difficulty of courses, grade trends, school and community involvement, special talents, strength of character, and personal circumstances are also considered.

International students are not eligible for financial aid and must provide verification of funding for one year of expenses. If an international student is hired as a Teaching Assistant (TA), the compensation for the TA (stipend and waiver) can be used to offset some of the financial documentation required for the visa processing. However, TA compensation will not cover all costs of attendance.
Many international students will require a visa to study in the US, and this is a vital step of your study abroad journey. Make sure you understand the requirements you may need to meet before applying.
