Students take a variety of educational courses to supplement the college academic major.
The program emphasizes the college academic major with field experiences to complement the core curriculum in pedagogy, adolescent development, and secondary education issues. Students are strongly encouraged to carry a major and minor teaching area to be competitive in the job market. Students should check the Marian College catalog for requirements. Students may obtain a current listing of required courses in the different majors and minors from their advisors, the Education Department secretary, or the Director of Secondary Education. The student focuses on the general education requirements and is encouraged to do peer tutoring or volunteer work.
