2 Years On Campus Masters Program

Oklahoma State University

Program Overview

The Early Childhood Education option emphasizes child development as a foundation for the study and practice of professional education of children from birth through age eight. This program was designed for HDFS undergraduate students seeking both the BS and MS specializing in Early Childhood Education prior to entering the profession. The integrated program is designed to be completed in five years, including two summers, but the MS option is also open to graduates from other departments or universities. To help students gain a strong understanding of how theory and research inform classroom and professional practice, students take courses in history and theory, curriculum, issues, and observation and assessment. Students also complete a field experience in early childhood education as part of the degree program.
