Bachelor of Science - Education - Secondary Education - Life Sciences

Husson University offers three choices of concentrations for those wishing to pursue a career in secondary education: English, Physical Science, and Life Science. Graduates earning the BS in one of these programs may choose to teach in middle and high school settings, in either the public or private sector. Along with diverse coursework, these programs integrate substantial experiential learning through clinical, practicum, and student teaching placements in a variety of classrooms. The Husson University School of Education realizes that the teaching profession needs leaders who are committed to influencing the future one student at a time.

The Life Science Teacher Education program prepares graduates for certification to teach the life sciences in grades 6-12. Science teachers must skillfully guide students' understanding of the world of science and how it relates to their health, environment, values, and a broader knowledge of the world. As with the physical science concentration, the life science course requirements help cultivate depth in scientific understanding along with liberal arts and professional education courses.
