ITEP (Old)

Includes all students who declared ITEP before December 31, 2004

The Integrated Teacher Education Program (ITEP) combines the study of academic subjects aligned to California standards for the K-8 curriculum with professional preparation courses and field experiences leading to a Multiple Subject Credential. Upon successful completion of the program, students will receive both a Bachelor of Arts in Liberal Studies and a California Level I Multiple Subject Credential.

Students who complete the Core and Concentration courses, who have completed at least 120 hours of approved Service Learning, and who meet all other University requirements, but who do not advance to the Credential portion of the program, will be eligible to transfer to the Track I program and receive a B.A. in Liberal Studies. These students may apply for admission to the post-baccalaureate Multiple Subject Credential Program. There are multiple pathways to the teaching profession. ITEP is designed for students who begin their undergraduate education at CSULB or who transfer into the University in pursuit of both a baccalaureate degree as well as a Multiple Subject teaching credential.
