The Licensure And Masters Program (LAMP)
Early Childhood Education (Primary Education)
The Licensure and Masters Program (LAMP) in Early Childhood Education (ECE) is designed for the student who already holds a baccalaureate degree in a major other than education and wants to become a licensed early childhood teacher in the State of Ohio . The program provides coursework that will lead toward initial PK - 5 teacher licensing in the State of Ohio and, at the same time, meet the requirements for a Masters Degree in Education.
LAMP graduates earn a Master of Education degree and an initial four-year resident
educator license for grades PK-5.
The ME in Early Childhood Education is a 36 semester hour program. Students take courses in teacher education that include practicum and internship experiences in PK-12 schools along with supporting education courses. The program culminates with a theory and research course and the completion of a master's culminating seminar, project, or thesis depending on the student's interest. Coursework is completed through a combination of on-campus, online, and school-based courses.
