NOTES:
*General Education Elective: Courses may be in communications, mathematics, natural science, humanities, social science, physical education, or other areas that count toward the college's general education requirements. *Advisor Approved Elective: Courses that meet degree-specific requirements, which may include university, college, department requirements, and electives.

Students must successfully complete the Idaho Technology Performance Assessment and the Praxis II test prior to the internship, and earn a grade of C or higher in all courses toward the major.

It is highly recommended that elementary students who are planning to teach grades 6, 7, and 8 select an area of concentration that meets state endorsement standards for secondary education. Students should consult with their advisor for details.

Curriculum plans are intended as advising tools only, not a contract between the student and the university, and are subject to verification by the student's academic advisor and/or department chair. The University of Idaho reserves the right to change, amend, or discontinue any articulation agreement or curriculum plan at any time.
