Earth Science Major (B.S.E.)—2009-2010 Roadmap [Degree Requirements]

GPS

The Adolescence/Young Adult Education (ADED) Earth Science program prepares candidates for licensure in earth science, grades 7-12. Students take a broad range of courses from the biology, chemistry, geography and physics departments and specialize in geology content. Most content coursework is completed during their first three years; methods coursework begins during the spring of their third year. In the final year of the program, candidates complete remaining content courses, science teaching methods courses, and a year-long placement in a local school district, which concludes with 12 weeks of student teaching in the spring.

Notes:
1. Students enrolling in ADED 32142 must have been admitted to advanced study. This course is a prerequisite for the Special Methods Course
    I, II and Field Work Practicum.

2. Special Methods Course II and Field Work Practicum are to be taken together the fall prior to student teaching.

3. Students must earn a minimum grade of C (2.00) in all professional and major coursework. A 2.60 GPA in all major coursework is required
   for admission to advanced study, student teaching and graduation.

4. For Praxis II testing requirements and information, contact the Vacca Office of Student Services.
