Bachelor of Science in Elementary Education - Fort Wayne - Indiana - Indiana Institute of Technology - I1725

Our teacher education program is crafting a new era of educators who know how to combine time-tested teaching methods with state-of-the-art technology.

Time spent in elementary school represents some of the most crucial years of our lives. It is where we learn mathematics, reading, and writing. What we learn in elementary school is a springboard for our education in high school, college, and beyond. Indiana Tech understands the importance of those first years in school.

Education has evolved and changed over the years, and we have created a comprehensive program that teaches our students how to integrate the best, time proven techniques with new technology. We also understand the importance of practical experience when learning to become a teacher. That is why our students spend about 60 hours per semester in elementary school classrooms experiencing what teachers experience everyday!
