The Donald R. Watson School of Education is a community of scholars dedicated to teaching, learning, creating, and extending knowledge through research. We offer programs of study leading to the Bachelor of Arts degrees in education of young children, elementary education, middle grades education, and special education, and programs leading to secondary (9-12) and special subjects (K-12) teacher licensure. Students who have baccalaureate degrees and want to add teacher licensure must complete the same requirements as degree-seeking students. In addition, graduate programs in elementary education, middle grades education, language and literacy education, secondary education, special education, curriculum/instruction supervision, school administration, and instructional technology are available. A doctoral program, Ed.D. in educational leadership and administration, also is offered. An add-on licensure in English as a Second Language is available for individuals who have earned a North Carolina initial license. We also offer online and e-learning oppportunities, as well as extension programs for Coastal, Brunswick, Southeastern, James Sprunt, and Sampson Community Colleges.
