School of Education

Undergraduate Programs

Endicott offers a variety of programs that lead to an initial license in early childhood, elementary, and secondary (science, history, English, and math) education. Our educational studies concentration is perfect if you are interested in working with children in a setting that does not require state licensure, such as a private school or day care.

The minors in applied behavior analysis (ABA), and child and family life studies, prepare you to work in some of the fastest growing areas of education. A minor in education is also available for those interested in the field of education as a secondary focus to your academic major.

If you choose to enroll in our licensure programs, you will have the opportunity to complete additional courses that lead to the Massachusetts license in Moderate Disabilities (preK-2, preK-8, 5-12).
