Child Development Majo

B.S. in Ed., Elementary Provisional Certification 

The intent of the Child Development Major is to provide students with an interdisciplinary approach to the study of children. The study of children in the preschool and elementary years is viewed within the context of teaching and working with children in educational settings. Students who complete this major may take the Michigan Early Childhood Examination. Successful completion of this examination results in the addition of the Early Childhood (ZA) Endorsement to the student's K-8 teaching certificate. The ZA Endorsement is required for employment in Michigan Public School Preschool Programs.

Like the minor in child development, the required courses on this major meet the minimum course work requirements for early childhood education by the Michigan Department of Education. The five to six hours of electives on the major, however, provide a more in-depth study of child development than is offered on the minor. The two elective courses chosen from a ten-course offering emphasize the influence of the family and the larger culture on the development of children. This major is appropriate for students who desire a more in-depth study of child development as preparation for teaching young children than the minimum course work provided in the minor. It is also an appropriate choice for students who have career plans that include teacher certification but allow for the exploration of careers working with children in other settings such as the pursuit of a master's degree in school counseling.

The total number of semester hours required to complete this major and two additional minors is actually less than the total number of hours on the average major/minor combination on the B.S. in Education. This is due to careful design of this program to maximize double counting of courses within the degree and university program. Early advisement and planning are necessary to be able to complete this major with as few hours as possible.

This major is authorized by a designated advisor in the Department of Human Environmental Studies or the department of Teacher Education and Professional Development. Completion of this major requires two minors. One of the minors must be selected from Option 2, Group 1 (Biology-BIO, Mathematics-MTH, Physical Science-PHS). The second minor may be selected from Option 2, Group 2 or 3.
