Educational Studies

The Educational Studies minor provides students opportunities to learn more about aspects of teaching and learning for use and application in non-formal and formal teaching settings and related professional fields. This minor focuses on helping students individually and collectively facilitate engaged learning, support social justice, communicate about environmental sustainability and engage in reflective practice as an educator. Students in the social sciences, natural sciences, and arts & humanities who aspire to work with broader publics would benefit from foundational skills, knowledge, and dispositions provided in the Educational Studies minor coursework and field experience. Note: The Educational Studies minor alone does not lead to a preK-12 Wisconsin teaching license.
