Liberal Studies - Elementary Teacher Preparation
The following degree enables the student to prepare
to transfer, primarily to a CSU school with a major in
Elementary
Teacher Preparation, typically called Liberal
Studies at the CSU institution. While this particular
pattern
of courses is specific to transfer to CSU East
Bay, other CSU institutions,
who also follow California
State guidelines for Elementary Teacher Credentialing
preparation include many, if not all of these requirements.
The student is advised to consult ASSIST (
www.assist.org) for CSU schools other than CSU East Bay
and see a counselor for assistance.
This pattern encompasses the new multiple subject matter
program standards adopted by the California Commission
on Teacher Credentialing. CSU General Education-
Breadth
and other university requirements are subsumed in the Liberal
Studies major. Not all lower division courses for the
Liberal Studies major at CSUEB are available at Chabot;
you may need to take additional lower division classes after
transfer. Areas below that have a (*) indicate that there may
be additional lower division requirements after transfer.
No single course may be applied to more than one major
requirement in this pattern.
