The Education Minor offers students a solid foundation in education by studying educational philosophies, current pedagogy, and completing field experiences in local classrooms.  The minor requires six education courses and one Education (EDUC) Interim. Students should begin the coursework as early as possible so that all of the requirements may be fulfilled. If students plan to complete the SC teaching certification, fifteen hours/five courses will transfer to Converse University and will apply towards a Master of Arts in Teaching (MAT). Additional career options with the minor include a non-traditional teaching certification process or the possibility of teaching in a private school, upon graduating from Wofford.
