WELCOME TO CURRICULUM AND INSTRUCTION
The
Department of Curriculum and Instruction has responsibility for
programs in Elementary Education and Middle Grades Education, and
for the professional education component of programs for individuals
preparing to become teachers in Secondary Schools.
At the graduate level, in cooperation with the Graduate School, the
department offers the Master of Arts degree in Education with
emphases in the following: elementary /middle grade education,
gifted/talented education, reading/writing, library science, and
secondary teaching fields. Fifth and sixth year nondegree continuing
certification programs (Rank II and Rank I) are offered in
elementary/middle grade education, library science, and secondary
teaching fields. Complete details regarding these programs are
included in the undergraduate and graduate university catalogues.
Alternative certification programs are available for students who
hold degrees and wish to pursue teacher certification. Both graduate
(M.A.T.) and undergraduate routes are available for students seeking
middle-grade or secondary certification. Regardless of
the route selected, students must meet Kentucky standards for
teacher certification. Individualized programs are developed after
transcripts have been carefully assessed.
