Liberal Arts - AA Degree - Education K-12 Emphasis

The Liberal Arts - AA Degree - Education K-12 Emphasis program is designed to allow students to complete the first two years of a four-year Bachelor's degree program and transfer to a public or private four-year college or university. A variety of courses from a wide range of disciplines are offered to students.

Starting your education major at Hawkeye will allow you to have practical experience with students in local schools beginning on day one. The classes you will take in this program have been designed to allow you to gain practical insight into the teaching profession and offer many opportunities to work with local students.

The Education Club is regularly involved in local schools and helps to provide a social network to support our education majors.

Students wishing to coach can complete coaching endorsement courses at Hawkeye.

Night Program

Get your Associate of Arts degree with an emphasis in Education at night! Eight week hybrid courses (partially face-to-face, partially online) are offered 6:00-7:15pm and 7:30-8:45 Tuesdays and Thursdays.

The Hawkeye Child Development Center will be open on Tuesday and Thursday evenings.

Transferring

Completion of the Pre-Professional Skills Test (PPST-PRAXIS I) is necessary for your transfer to Colleges of Education at regent universities. Test scores need to be submitted before admission can be processed. We recommend completing the test early in your sophomore year at Hawkeye.

Students enrolled in classes full-time will typically take four and a half to five years to graduate with their four-year degree.

It is important to plan your classes carefully and work with an advisor from Hawkeye and your transfer school to ensure a smooth transfer.

Hawkeye has articulated transfer agreements with UNI, Iowa State, University of Iowa, and Upper Iowa University.
