Undergraduate Teacher Licensure

科罗拉多大学 offer the opportunity to be licensed at the undergraduate level! Licensure is offered in elementary education (K-6), k - 12艺术, music and world languages and secondary (6-12) English, 数学, 科学及社会研究. 

If you plan to teach elementary school, you may major in any liberal arts discipline. If you plan to pursue licensure at the K-12 or secondary level, you must major in the content area you plan to teach. You will also need to complete education coursework listed below.

To allow students extra time to meet the demands of their major and the teacher licensure program, there is the "9th" semester option, in which students complete their 4 blocks of student teaching after they graduate with their bachelor's degree. This "9th" semester is at a significantly reduced tuition rate. 另外, students may wish to pursue licensure through the Master of Arts in 教学 program (see graduate programs).

Culturally and Linguistically Diverse 教育 Endorsement

The 教育 Department at 科罗拉多大学 has been approved by the Colorado Department of 教育 and recommended by the Colorado Department of Higher 教育 to offer the Culturally and Linguistically Diverse 教育 endorsement. The endorsement is offered in response to the critical need for Colorado K-12 educators to be effectively prepared to teach all learners. The endorsement was a natural fit as 科罗拉多大学's teacher preparation curriculum is built around culturally sustaining pedagogy. Equitable access to learning and authentic multicultural education is emphasized in all coursework. Interested students should contact 黛布拉·亚祖拉·摩顿森, Director of Teacher Educator 项目.

In compliance with Title II of the Higher 教育 Act, the following data for 2021-22 (the most recent reporting year) is provided: 13 students were enrolled, and 10 of those students completed the teacher preparation program. There were 5 full-time faculty members, and there were 5 supervising faculty for the teacher preparation program. 学生 participate in supervised student teaching for an average of 40 hours/week for a total of 16 weeks. The pass rate of teacher education students on the PRAXIS II content exam was 100 percent.
