To emphasize the application of knowledge in the field as required by Colorado’s teacher quality standards, the minor features two 60-hour field experience courses. Each student must also complete a Content Methods course which, 在某些情况下, may require a third field experience as a co-requisite.

This minor is a great choice if you wish to work with secondary-aged students outside the classroom or if you are interested in learning about secondary education overall.

While this minor does not earn you recommendation for teacher licensure by itself, each required course is also required in most of our teacher licensure programs in secondary education (and some K-12 education licensure programs, ).  If you begin this minor and becoming a licensed teacher becomes a goal of yours, we can help you transition to a licensure program where these courses will count!
