What does Randall's Teacher Education Degree have to offer?
Randall University is committed to developing students to become teachers in elementary and secondary schools. Randall graduates receive a holistic liberal arts education that prepares them intellectually, morally, socially, and spiritually for both the public school and private school classrooms. Our graduates emerge ready for licensure and certification in Oklahoma elementary and secondary classrooms.
Opportunities with a Teacher Education Degree:
Graduates of the Randall University School of Education are recommended for licensure in Oklahoma. Specific Bachelor of Science in Teacher Education specializations include Elementary Education, Secondary Mathematics, Secondary Social Studies, and Secondary Biology. Degrees and licensure for Secondary English and Secondary Business are available through alternative certification routes.
Does licensure transfer to other states?
This is a great question! Each state has their own professional licensure requirements. In accordance with Federal Regulation 34 C.F.R. §668.43(a)(5)(v), RU has complied a list of state requirements. Students are advised to review this list and contact advisors within the RU School of Education for additional questions.
