Early childhood education is an important aspect of building contributing members of society. These early years of development play a significant role in shaping who individuals will become. With an early childhood education minor, students graduate with two teaching licenses – one in elementary/middle school education (grades K-9) and one in early childhood (birth through grade 3) education. The minor also works well as a supplement for social work, elementary education, and psychology majors—any degree where the student's career outlook may involve specializing in working with children. The early childhood education minor also offers  the knowledge required to be a preschool teacher or childcare administrator.
