Undergraduate Programs

Contact: Dr. Douglas K. Mountz (dmountz2@eastern.edu)

The Undergraduate Education Program is designed to develop excellent teachers and educational practitioners who can serve in a variety of settings in early and basic education. Students are prepared to communicate effectively, think critically, utilize technology appropriately, learn independently and collaboratively, and serve competently in their chosen fields.

Eastern's certification programs are designed to meet the standards of the Pennsylvania Department of Education (PDE).  PDE will be eliminating the Elementary certification (K-6) as of December 31, 2012. Two new certifications will be in effect as of January 1, 2013. They are Early Childhood (N-4) and Middle Level (4-8). (Please review this page periodically as this transition evolves).
