Bachelor of Science in Elementary Education - Teacher Education and Learning Sciences (TELS). Unique among undergraduate teacher education programs, this degree creates teacher-leaders with deep content knowledge in all elementary disciplines, emphasizing science, technology, engineering, and mathematics for a strong STEM-focused instruction.

Graduates from our program are prepared to be leaders who have an unwavering commitment to serving children. Our rigorous STEM-based approach requires completing at least 27 credit hours of courses focusing on STEM content. Prospective teachers also graduate with a firm literacy foundation, taking at least two courses concentrating on reading and one on language arts and engineering methods focused on children’s designs and inventions, along with courses in diversity, special education, and social studies. Students learn arts integration and to incorporate STEM subjects with other curricula while planning lessons and units.
