Teacher Preparation Programs Teacher preparation programs are available in the areas of early childhood, elementary, and secondary education and in the K-12 programs of art, music, physical education, health education, and special education. Undergraduate Programs Undergraduate programs are offered in the areas of art, music, and physical education. Students who wish to become art teachers pursue an undergraduate degree in art education (College of Liberal Arts); those who wish to become music teachers pursue an undergraduate degree in music education (School of Music); and those wishing to become physical education teachers pursue an undergraduate degree in physical education (College of Education). These programs are designed to offer prospective teachers intensive academic study in the subject area in combination with professional training for teaching grades K-12. To receive a recommendation for professional certification, students must complete the baccalaureate degree and the professional program in education* (College of Education). Undergraduate/Graduate Programs Five-year undergraduate/graduate teacher preparation programs are offered in the areas of early childhood education, elementary education, and the following areas of secondary education: English, French, Latin, mathematics, science, social studies, and Spanish. (See the Graduate Studies Bulletin for information on the five-year program for school library media specialists). To receive a recommendation for teacher certification, students must complete both the baccalaureate degree and the master’s degree.* Early Childhood and Elementary Education Students who seek teacher certification in early childhood or elementary education may select any undergraduate degree program at the University as long as they are able to incorporate appropriate course selections and the education minor (see below). Students then complete a fifth-year Master of Arts in Teaching degree. The fifth-year program begins the summer after graduation from the undergraduate degree program. Secondary Education Students who seek teacher certification in secondary education must pursue undergraduate degree programs in the subject area they wish to teach. Students should consult an advisor in the appropriate college for information on course work required for teacher certification. This will include subject-area and education courses. Students then complete a fifth-year Master of Teaching degree, which begins the summer after completion of the undergraduate degree. *Information regarding the M.A.T. and M.T. programs is available from the Office of Student Affairs, College of Education, Wardlaw 113. The fifth-year M.A.T. and M.T. programs, as well as the M.A.T. programs for non-fifth-year students, are described in the Graduate Studies Bulletin. Education Cognate and Minor Fifth-Year Core Courses. Students who wish to pursue initial teacher preparation through one of the fifth-year programs will complete the following undergraduate core courses (12 credit hours) in education. Some community placements may require FBI and SLED checks and fees for same. EDUC 300, 400, 401, 401P, 402, 402P K-12 Programs--Core Courses. Students enrolled in K–12 undergraudate initial teacher preparation programs will complete core courses as follows: Art and Music: EDUC 300, 401, and 402 Physical Education: EDUC 300 and 401 Specialized Education Minors.

Professional Program in Education Undergraduate and graduate students are required to obtain formal admission to the professional program in education prior to the directed teaching experience. Students admitted to teacher preparation programs are not admitted to the professional program in education by reason of their admission to undergraduate or graduate programs. Admissions decisions are competitive. A limited number of students will be accepted each semester. Directed Teaching/Internship Undergraduate and graduate students are also required to obtain formal admission to directed teaching/internship in order to successfully complete their degree program requirements as approved by accrediting agencies, including NCATE. Undergraduate students in K-12 programs may be required to meet additional specialized requirements of their academic departments and should consult their departmental advisors. Information about the professional program in education, directed teaching/internship, specific deadlines, and applications are available from the Office of Student Affairs, College of Education. Certification In the initial teacher certification degree programs, undergraduate and graduate, the degree and certification are linked. Inasmuch as the certification requirements are the responsibility of the State Board of Education, if state regulations change, degree requirements are also subject to change. All students seeking initial teacher certification must meet the following requirements: 1. successfully complete the requirements of the degree program 2. achieve scores at or above the criterion established by the state on the program-appropriate exams (Praxis II series). Scores earned on the Praxis must be submitted to the Office of Students Affairs, College of Education, Wardlaw 113, USC, and to the South Carolina State Department of Education 3. submit to an FBI check 4. pay all certification fees as required. Physical Education The Department of Physical Education offers programs leading to the B.S./B.A. degree in physical education. A minor in school athletic coaching is also offered. Courses are offered in two major tracks: 1. teacher certification in physical education, and 2. athletic training. The teacher certification track prepares people to teach physical education in public and private schools from K-12. The athletic training track prepares the student to qualify as a certified athletic trainer through the National Athletic Trainers Association approved curriculum program. Students who desire admittance to the athletic training track must satisfy the professional requirements as established by the NATA. Enrollment in any athletic training course is limited to students with a GPA greater than 2.50. Policies regarding transfer admission into physical education include: 1. Students from regionally accredited colleges and universities who have earned up to 40 semester hours of credit must have a minimum grade point average of 2.25 (on a 4.00 scale) to enter preprofessional programs in physical education; students who have earned more than 40 semester hours of credit must have a minimum grade point average of 2.50 to enter preprofessional programs in physical education. (Note: A minimum GPA of 2.50 is required to enter the professional program in education [approximately junior-year status].) 2. A grade of C or better must be earned on all courses listed for admission to the professional program in physical education. 3. Students may not transfer credit for any course which carries a grade less than C. Progression Requirements A student in physical education must earn a C or better in all major course work including major and minor emphases, education courses, required sciences, analytical reasoning option, and ENGL 101 and ENGL 102. Students may attempt to earn a satisfactory grade in a major course no more than two times. Only if a valid case for taking the course a third time is established will such be allowed. Validity of a case will be determined by departmental review of a formal petition. Completion of remedial course work may be required. Standards for general eligibility to continue in the University are described in the bulletin. The Department of Physical Education has additional standards. 1. If the semester, yearly, or cumulative grade point average of a student is below 2.50, the student will receive notification in writing from the department of the GPA jeopardy. 2. If a student has two consecutive semesters of grade point averages below 2.50 and a cumulative grade point average below 2.50, the student will be suspended from academic programs in the Department of Physical Education. 3. To be reinstated the student must achieve an overall grade point average of 2.50 and have the endorsement of the Department of Physical Education.
