The Early Childhood Education degree places emphasis on the needs of children from birth to grade 2 in urban districts. Students can balance their rigorous course load with on-the-ground experiences in classrooms and they will graduate ready to be a New York State-certified teacher.

Program Highlights: • Learn from a faculty of educators, teacher trainers, active and retired teachers, superintendents, and education directors • Gain practical, hands-on skills • One-on-one teaching helps students grasp the unique developmental and linguistic needs of early childhood learners • Specific scholarship opportunities exist for ECE majors
