Department of Sociology and Anthropology
Undergraduate
 
Bachelor of Arts in Sociology, Social Studies Teacher Education Option (LTS)
This curriculum prepares the student for state certification in social studies in the secondary school system. The inclusion of a professional semester with practice teaching and the need for a broad base in the social sciences makes this a comparatively demanding program with somewhat less opportunity for free electives. Courses in education and psychology are taken beginning in the sophomore year in preparation for the teaching experience. The student learns the basic concepts of economics, political science, anthropology and history, as well as sociology.

Degree Requirements:
28 hours in the major field, a professional education sequence, and a professional semester during which student teaching occurs. The Social Studies certification program (LTS) requires 121 credits.
