The following is an overview of programs offered by the Department of Integrated Studies in Education.
The aim of the B.Ed. Secondary program is to prepare strong beginning teachers for the secondary school level. This integrated 120-credit program (150 credits for out-of-province students) consists of academic studies to provide background depth in subjects taught in the secondary school, professional studies centred on school-based practicum, supported by studies in pedagogy, curriculum, and educational foundations. Students choose their teaching profiles from: English, Mathematics, Science and Technology, and Social Sciences (History and Citizenship, and one of Geography or Ethics and Religious Culture). Students applying to the B.Ed. Secondary in the areas of Mathematics or Science and Technology, depending on their academic record, may be required to complete additional courses in order to gain the appropriate subject area background.
This program provides students with the opportunity to obtain a Bachelor of Music degree and a Bachelor of Education degree concurrently. The two degrees are awarded during the same convocation period. Students who have completed Quebec CEGEP, French Baccalaureate, International Baccalaureate, or at least one year of university studies are normally enrolled in a program requiring the completion of 137 credits.
New students are no longer being admitted to this program.
