PET/Secondary Education

SEARCH

This degree plan allows students to complete their Associate of Arts degree at Cowley and continue their study with Wichita State University (WSU). WSU will offer the core courses of the Elementary Education licensure program via interactive television (ITV) and/or online. For those studying Secondary Education, core courses for the first semester of the teacher licensure program will be available via ITV and/or online. The Secondary Education majors must then take discipline specific content courses at the WSU main campus during the second and third semesters of study. The culminating student teaching semester for both elementary and secondary majors can be completed in a school district located in South Central Kansas. Therefore, students can complete their final semester in their hometown schools. The WSU interactive television courses will be available at the Mulvane and Arkansas City locations. This will offer students an opportunity to limit their commuting time by not having to travel to Wichita for the required course work for all semesters. If interested in this program, dual advising is recommended. Students should visit with a Cowley College advisor for more information as this program changes with demands. Enrollment is limited therefore, students should consider visiting with the advisor at the beginning of their sophomore year at Cowley.
