Education Major


Requirements for Concentration:


To major in educational studies, students must complete nine units:

One educational foundations course designed to introduce students to critical debates about the nature and purposes of U.S. education

Two additional electives


These can be additional courses from one of the three clusters listed above, courses completed through a study abroad program, or courses listed in other departments and programs (see approved course list).

Additional Requirements:


At least two courses at the 300-level must be completed before a student begins the senior seminar and the senior capstone course. After declaration of the major, all courses taken toward the major must be graded, unless a course is offered only on a pass-fail basis (some of the credits earned through the Vassar programs in Costa Rica and Ireland are ungraded).
