About Lipscomb
|
Do you enjoy teaching others and inspiring them to learn new things? A career in education may be for you. The primary purpose of the Department of Education is to serve and inspire you so that you master the knowledge, attitudes, and skills needed to become caring and competent educators in a diverse and technological society. The department offers undergraduate and graduate programs built on the framework of C.A.R.E. — Craft of Teaching, Attitudes and Values, Relationships and Essential Knowledge. Courses are designed to meet Tennessee licensure requirements. If you choose to go into secondary education you will be expected to complete a teaching major in the content subject or area in which you plan to teach. You may also elect to complete state requirements for endorsement in additional high school subjects. Undergraduate students completing K-8 programs may work toward either the Bachelor of Arts or the Bachelor of Science degree. The Department of Education is located in the new Ezell Building. The view at the left can be seen from near the department offices on the 3rd floor. The Allen Bell Tower and the Swang building are visible from that view.
On the right is a 3rd floor view that looks toward the southern part of the campus. All the professor's offices are located on the third floor of Ezell. The Teacher Education Prrogram at Lipscomb University is approved by the Tennessee State Board of Education and nationally accredited by the National Council for Accreditation of Teacher Education.
