Education
Teachers change lives. They instill knowledge, inspire thought, and prepare the leaders of tomorrow. If you would like to enter this rewarding and important field, Mercyhurst has the programs to get you there. Mercyhurst's reputation for producing highly qualified teachers puts our education graduates in high demand both locally and across the country.
Undergraduate education degrees are offered in middle childhood, secondary, early childhood and special education, with several areas of study available, including art, business, world languages and music, just to name a few. Plus, Mercyhurst students preparing for a career in secondary education (7-12) can now earn both a bachelor and master degree in just five years through our 4+1 bachelor and master degree program in secondary education.
College graduates can continue their studies with our master degrees in special education and secondary education, or our teacher certificates.
