This program is specifically geared toward the Cal State San Marcos liberal studies major. It incorporates subject requirements for the Elementary Subject Matter (ESM) and Integrated Teacher Education Program (ITEP) teaching tracks. No course substitutions are permitted on this degree. Upon completion of those majors, students will be waived from the California Subject Examination for Teachers (CSET) testing requirements for admission to a California Multiple Subject credential program. Upon successful completion of this program, students will demonstrate proficiency in lower-division academic content areas required for subject matter competency for elementary teaching credential students.
