Overview

The Education - Elementary-Middle School (Middle Childhood through Early Adolescence) program from Concordia University Wisconsin offers many flexible options including dual certifications in Early Childhood or Cross Categorical Special Education, and a variety of minors, concentrations, or certificates so you can delve deeper in the subjects and specialties that interest you.

Each undergraduate education program also offers a Lutheran Teacher Diploma track if you’d like to pursue education as an LCMS church work professional, and a Christian Teacher Certification track if you’d like to teach in another Christian school setting. Both tracks include an additional 9 credits of coursework to prepare you to teach religion and to integrate faith throughout the curriculum. Each track leads to a Wisconsin teacher license to allow you to serve as a Christian teacher in a public school as well.

No matter what route you take, you can count on building a strong liberal arts foundation with a Christian emphasis. It will give you the freedom to choose from a number of career options including elementary school teacher, middle-school content specialist, educational researcher, and curriculum specialist.

What to expect

Throughout your time in this program, you will grow a deep understanding of child development by taking a holistic approach to education. You'll start with specific education coursework and practical field experiences during your freshman year, and work to master content knowledge throughout the program, as well as a wide range of instructional strategies. Expect to develop skills in classroom management, curricular design and assessment, differentiated instruction, and data-driven improvement.
