Study education practice and policy and how they impact student learning.
Lehigh’s Education Minor offers students the opportunity to explore education fields, complementing their primary area of study with a foundational understanding of teaching, learning, and educational systems.
This interdisciplinary program is designed for those interested in careers in school teaching or other professional roles involving elementary, secondary, or special education students. While completing the minor, students learn about how teaching and learning occur in a variety of professional contexts with learners across the lifespan and with a range of identities.
Any undergraduate student at Lehigh University can declare this minor but must initiate it no later than the beginning of their junior year. The education minor consists of five courses selected from a range of education-related topics in consultation with an academic advisor from the College of Education.
