Program Description

The early childhood education degree at TWU is intended for those who want to teach students from birth to approximately eight years old, with licensure opportunity in preschool-3rd grade. 

Students will learn how to use classroom management procedures, develop lesson plans, use researched-based programs to teach children how to read, understand and use math strategies for Pre-K-3rd grade and incorporate instructional technology. 

It’s more than just learning to teach, however, as students see how family, school, and community working together effect and develop children.

Career Opportunities

Early childhood majors with licensure will be able to teach in the state of Tennessee any grades between PreK and 3rd grade. 

If a student obtains the Early Childhood Degree without licensure, there can be job opportunities for places such as day care programs.
