Bachelor of Science in Education - Integrated English Language Arts Education (Grades 7-12)

The Integrated English Language Arts Education major leads to a Bachelor of Science in Education degree. Approved by the Ohio Department of Education, this program prepares graduates to teach students in grades 7-12 in the areas of English (writing, language, readingliterature). In addition to meeting requirements of the Miami Plan, students take courses in English and Education. During their study, students observe and participate in urban and suburbanrural classrooms, culminating in a 15-week, full-time student teaching experience in which they work closely with mentor teachers in high schools or middle schools, eventually assuming instructional responsibilities for all classes.This integrated program prepares you to transform traditional context for today’s classroom. You’ll observe and interact with urban and suburbanrural students while developing a foundation in psychology and human development. Because you will also be taking a number of English courses, it is common for students to add a double major with English. Although most students who complete this program teach in high schools and junior high schools, others work in publishing or other areas of communication. Additionally, students who obtain additional education may choose to pursue roles in educational administration.
