Quinnipiac's secondary education curriculum consists of an intensive five-semester program of study that begins in the Fall semester. Each curriculum includes core certification courses that provide eligibility for teacher certification, advanced content (discipline) courses which satisfy master’s degree requirements, and a unique internship experience which provides pre-service teachers the opportunity to learn about schools, students and teaching.
To ensure admission into the program with a placement in an internship, applicants should complete the application process early. It is recommended that applicants complete the application process for graduate admission by March 31 before the anticipated Fall enrollment.
