The Minor in Education is designed for Temple University undergraduates who are professionally or personally committed to education, urban schooling, and the development and well-being of youth. The Education minor provides undergraduate students with broad, foundational knowledge about the state of education, adolescent development, and community and school relationships. Students whose research interests are content-based, such as political science, history, and geography and urban studies, but have connections to education will benefit from exposure to schools through field placements and education theory. This minor is also ideal for students who plan to enter occupations in fields such as policy, counseling, and child psychology, which have connections to education. Finally, this minor is an opportunity for students to investigate careers in education. Through coursework and field experiences students will be interacting with education majors and working in schools, thus providing them with a sample of some of the work that pre-service teachers do. This carefully designed sequence of courses includes field experiences such as tutoring, observations in after school programs, and work in community centers to support in-class learning.
