Overview

Since its inception in 1930, the Secondary Education (7-12) - Business Education program from Commonwealth University of Pennsylvania has maintained its excellent reputation in teacher preparation within Pennsylvania and other states. The program’s 4,000+ alumni promote the ideals of educating students for success in business and life. Graduates of the business education program have specialized knowledge and skills to prepare them for:

positions teaching business, computers and information technology at the K-12 educational levels
training managers for business and government
teaching in proprietary business schools

Graduates may also serve as coaches and advisors to student organizations and are prepared for graduate study in business, education or related fields.

Field Experiences

Bloomsburg's network with school districts goes beyond the placement of our student teachers. Each year several hundred middle and high school students come to campus to participate in our Husky Dog Pound business plan competition, directed by our business education faculty. Most business education majors have an "A-Ha" moment once they first begin student teaching.

You'll be prepared for the classroom, but true teaching experience is what ties it all together. Student teachers work with a supervising instructor and an experienced cooperating teacher who work with you as you develop your skills. While gaining a breadth of experience is important, you'll have the opportunity to remain at one school throughout your placement and gradually pick up a full teaching schedule.
