TEACHING DEGREES
The California Commission on Teacher Credentialing has
authorized CSUB to offer a single subject matter preparation program in
Natural Science leading to a Bachelor of Arts degree. This course work
satisfies the course requirements for a "Secondary Teaching
Credential in Science." The program consists of three components: I.
Primary Concentration (major); II. Secondary Concentration (minor); and,
III. Breadth (cognates).
Program completion leads to a BA degree in the Natural
Sciences with a major in the area of primary concentration and a minor in
the secondary concentration. Certification of Subject Matter Competency
requires a minimum grade of "C-" in each course.
