Albright undergraduate education students benefit from combining their major in general education with coursework focused on their desired area of teaching concentration. With more than two dozen concentration tracks, Albright students customize their education program to develop deep knowledge and skill in their chosen area. Options include Early Childhood Education (PreK-4); Secondary Education (7-12); K-12 certifications in Special Education, Art and Foreign Languages; and a 4+1 bachelor’s and master’s program.
Graduate students can pursue post-baccalaureate teaching certificates or complete an online master’s through Albright’s accelerated programs in general education; PreK-4; Secondary Education; Special Education; Educational Innovation and Entrepreneurship; and the 4+1 bachelor’s and master’s program.

Our program creates a personalized learning experience that allows educators to engage in meaningful activities and collaborate with peers to co-construct knowledge. The result is personal growth, increased lifetime earnings, and effective classroom management for today’s learners.
