Early Childhood Education Schedule

We've designed this page so that students could exclusively see the early childhood education core and elective courses offered through Curriculum and Instruction (CI).  Students will not find all of the ECE Specialization core courses listed here, as three core courses (CI 581, CI 580, and CI 590) are offered through the regular CI Master's program and would be found in the regular PSU class schedule. Along with all regular university courses, our courses listed below are also found at that web page.

For more electives and to see the online-only early childhood education courses go to Continuing Education.
