Bachelor of Science in Secondary Education – Concentration in History

Arizona Christian University

United States of America (USA)

Education, History

Bachelor of Science (BSc)

The Secondary Education – History program at ACU trains you in the art and science of teaching History while providing critical coursework to deepen your knowledge and understanding of the field of education. Three key attributes of the program will prepare you for a successful career in education. First, the program emphasizes the integration of educational principles across the teaching profession. You will learn that teaching is not compartmentalized but is a rich combination of research-based theories and hands-on practical experience. Second, the program emphasizes practicality. Through the lens of extensive experience, faculty provide you with timely and valuable glimpses into today’s classrooms. The final and most valuable attribute of the program is the emphasis on mentoring. Because of the small size of the university, you will be able to develop a strong mentoring relationship with your instructors. This mentoring begins in the classroom, and continues through student teaching, and beyond.

Students develop close working relationships with each other and program faculty, whose expertise represents the range of traditional arts and sciences.
