If you have ever considered becoming a teacher, now is the perfect time to explore the teaching and learning experience. Education Studies offers now three minor programs of Study that will put you on the right path to a rewarding career: Minor in Mathematics Education, Minor in Science Education, and Minor in Education Studies. The courses in the minor programs, and the hands-on experiences you will gain in local schools will provide you with important preparation to become an intern teacher if you enroll in a credential program after you complete your bachelor’s degree.

If you are interested in the Minor in Mathematics Education or Minor in Science Education, please click on the following:

For more information on Math and Science minors, please visit the Science and Math Education Program.

Undergraduate students from any major or college are eligible for the Minor in Education Studies. Students who are planning to apply to the UCSD M.Ed./Credential Program should take the courses that satisfy the educational foundations requirements and the minor requirements simultaneously. Ask a EDS adviser if you have questions! The minor consists of a minimum of 28 units and must include at least one course from category A (below) and at least one course from 2 of the remaining categories (B,C,D). Grades of C– or better are required for the minor, but if you plan to apply to the EDS credential program note that grades of B or better are required in the EDS courses.
