BARRY A. JACKISCH, Ph.D., Program Director
Students majoring in History/Citizenship Education qualify for Teacher
Certification in Citizenship Education/Secondary Education; and Plan B: a B.A.
in Social Science without education courses. Students selecting Plan B need not
take courses in Education. Students study broadly in the fields of history,
political science, geography, and economics.
Aims and Objectives:
The objectives of the program are: (1) to give the students an opportunity to
become broadly educated in the fields of history, political science, geography,
and economics; and (2) to provide a program of teacher education which promotes
growth, development, attitude and expertise for successful teaching.
Students who wish to prepare themselves as secondary social studies teachers
must make formal application for admission to the teacher education program
through the School of Education. For a detailed explanation of all requirements
