Study at a Christian university and earn your bachelor's in education with a teaching certification! Messiah University’s early childhood (PreK- 4) education degree program prepares you to teach in preschools and grades K-4 in public and private schools.
In addition to your education coursework, you will develop a broad knowledge base by studying a wide variety of subjects such as mathematics, history, biology, literature, foreign language, psychology and the arts. As an education student, you will also have the opportunity to deepen your knowledge of an academic subject of your choice by completing a 12-credit disciplinary focus.
Our 94 percent pass rate on certification tests across all disciplines is just one indication of how well Messiah University prepares education students for teaching certification and jobs in early childhood education. Human resource recruiters seek out Messiah graduates, and school administrators who interview and hire our education graduates give consistently positive feedback about their instructional design skills.
