Bachelor [Education] From Coe College

Why study Education at Coe College

Passionate, knowledgeable faculty.

All education department faculty members have experience teaching in public schools, and the instructors who teach most of our methods courses are currently teaching in area schools, so you will be learning about real-life, real-time issues in education.

Although most elementary and secondary graduates find it easy to complete all of the required coursework in four years, some choose to put off student teaching until their fifth year to allow them to study abroad for a semester or complete additional endorsements. Coe grants a 60% tuition reduction to qualified students who choose to student teach in their fifth year.

We take academic advising seriously. Your advisor will help you construct a four-year plan of study as soon as you decide to become an education major or minor. You will get to know your education professors well, and we will help you make decisions that will give you maximum flexibility in your teaching career.

During your student teaching semester, you will be supervised by either a full-time department faculty member or a member of our small, outstanding team of professionals. You will be visited weekly during your entire student-teaching assignment and individually guided in your development as a teacher. You will meet with other student-teachers in a biweekly seminar to lend each other support and learn about licensure requirements.
