IUP will offer a part-time bachelor’s degree program in Child and Family Studies at its center in Monroeville. The program is designed for child care teachers and providers.
IUP’s Monroeville center is at 400 Penn Center Boulevard, Building Four, Suite 900, Wilkins Township. Classes are offered in the evenings and Saturdays.
The curriculum meets National Association for the Education of Young Children standards for early care and education.
Courses will be taken with a cohort, in which students build and maintain a supportive professional and academic network while moving through their classes as a group. Courses will be taught by doctoral-level IUP faculty members, and all students will have an advisor-mentor to provide guidance during the academic process.
