Education Program

Teaching is the most common area of interest among our students who major in education. The students who graduate with an Associate of Arts degree in Teaching hope to become high school or elementary teachers upon completion of their education.

Although the opportunities are perhaps more limited for careers outside of teaching, we do want you to be aware of other career options with this major. Some examples of these opportunities are:

• Publishing Industries
• Research and Development firms
• Education divisions of large corporations (ex. IBM)
• Government agencies and programs:
  • US Office of Education
  • Bureau of Prisons
  • Department of Education
  • Bureau of Indian Affairs
  • Job Corps
  • Peace Corps
• Community Organizations:
  • Boy and Girl Scouts
  • YMCA
  • Hospitals
  • Museums

Our department of education will assist you with career goals as well as articulation to your chosen four year institution.
