Undergraduate Programs

The College of Education offers two four-year bachelor's degrees: the Bachelor of Elementary Education (BEEd) which aims to prepare students for teaching in the elementary and pre-school; and the Bachelor of Secondary Education (BSE) which aims to prepare students for teaching in the secondary school. Not only are students in these two programs rigidly trained on pedagogy but they are also highly steeped on content owing it to the content courses they are required to take from the content-focused colleges in the UP DIliman campus.

Student Teaching Program

The main feature of the BEEd and BSE programs is student teaching--a type of apprenticeship designed to develop professional, social and academic insights and skills as the student teacher participates in the actual operation of the school in the teaching as well as the non-teaching activities of the profession. Plan A is so designed that the last semester of the four-year program is devoted entirely to intensive student teaching. Plan B is available for senior students who need to enroll in other academic courses (not more than 6 units) to fulfill requirements of the four-year program.
