Overview

What Will I Learn at the State University of New York Plattsburgh's Adolescence Education Combined?

You will learn to meet the educational needs of adolescents in a dynamic world. This includes the interrelationship between academic content, pedagogical application, continued learning, and the moral and political considerations of working with adolescents.

Key facts

Dual advisors: Benefit from two academic advisors — one in the adolescence education department and one in your liberal arts concentration.
Peace of mind: Once employed as a New York state teacher, you don’t have to worry about completing a master’s degree at night or during the summers within five years.
