Liberal Studies See catalog
description under Liberal Studies. SINGLE SUBJECT PREPARATION
PROGRAMS The California Commission on Teacher Credentialing (CCTC) has authorized CSUB to offer an
approved multiple subject teacher preparation program in several subjects. Following are the program titles and required
courses; please refer to individual departments in this catalog for further information on acquiring these credentials.
School of Business and Public Administration
Business Education The CSUB degree in Business Administration has
been certified by the California Commission for Teacher Credentials (CCTC) a subject matter preparation program meeting
the content requirements for the State of California Single Subject Credential in Business Education. Students who
complete an augmented Business Administration program are not required to pass the Examination Waiver for Business
Education. In addition, the student must be admitted to and must complete the Single Subject Credential program. Because
the waiver program differs in some details from the basic program for the major, credential candidates must consult with
the evaluator in the School of Education to assure that their program of study meets CCTC requirements.
School of Education
Physical Education Students interested in
majoring in Physical Education and Kinesiology with a concentration in Physical Education (teacher preparation) should
obtain general information about the program early in their lower division career. After declaring a major in Physical
Education and Kinesiology, they should meet with an appointed advisor within the department to plan a course of study for
the concentration in Physical Education. This is essential given that certain courses are offered only once a year and
that many courses have prerequisites that require completion of sequenced non-major and major courses in order to fulfill
these requirements. Required Courses
