Our graduates deeply understand how children grow and develop and can successfully guide young children from diverse cultural, social, and language backgrounds. Central to the program's philosophy is a commitment to provide quality education for all young children and advocate for linguistic and cultural developmentally effective practices in early childhood programs and schools. Based on the continual expansion of knowledge about child development, our curriculum is vibrant and addresses emerging issues in the field including infancy and brain research, curriculum design and play, authentic assessment and technology. Students are encouraged to push the boundaries of what is known about early childhood education, as witnessed in our partnership with the Lincoln Center Institute, in which our students explore the relationship between aesthetic education and early childhood educational practices. The program is nationally recognized by the National Association for the Education of Young Children.     Accreditation Information:   # Of Credits Required:   Time To Degree:     Previous Degrees Pre-Requisite Courses International Student Requirements Requirements Qualifying Exam: Minimum Exam Score: GPA or Equivalent: English Proficiency: Research Competency: Clinical Internship:   Work Experience Volunteer Experience Publications Experience Foreign Language Requirement Other Requirements   Cost Per Credit Hour: $   Tuition:   Financial Aid Offered:       # of Students Enrolled Full Time: 607  # of Students Enrolled Part Time: 3418  Average GPA:   Average Test Scores:   Charge Per Credit:   Annual Full Time Avg Institution Tuition:   Financial Aid Offered: Yes  Average Work Experience:   Specializations:   # of Terms Per Year: Semester  Placement Percentage:   Historically Black: No   Religious Affiliation:         Visit Program Website
