Accelerated Degree Programs in Education

Manhattanville’s School of Education offers this option for full-time undergraduates who wish to combine a Bachelor of Arts or Bachelor of Science in the School of Arts and Sciences with a Master of Arts in Teaching or a Master of Professional Studies. Undergraduates who demonstrate a 3.0 or better G.P.A. may apply for the Accelerated Degree program. This program allows students to take up to 15 graduate-level Education credits that apply to both the undergraduate and graduate degrees, thus allowing for acceleration of the graduate degree program.

The following Accelerated Degree programs are those most commonly pursued:

  • B.A./M.A.T. Program in Early Childhood Education (Birth – Gr. 2)

  • B.A./M.A.T. Program in Childhood Education (Grades 1 – 6)

  • B.A./M.A.T. Program in Early Childhood (Birth – Grade 2) plus Childhood Education (Grades 1 – 6)

  • B.A./M.A.T. Program in Adolescence Education (Grades 7 – 12) with Middle Childhood Extension (Grades 5 – 6) in English, Biology, Mathematics, or Social Studies

  • B.A./MPS Program in Early Childhood Education (Birth - Gr. 2) and Special Education: Early Childhood (Birth - Gr. 2)

  • B.A./MPS Program in Childhood Education (Grades 1 – 6) and Special Education: Childhood (Grades 1 – 6)

  • B.A./MPS Program in Adolescence Education (Grades 7 – 12) with Middle Childhood Extension (Grades 5 – 6) in English, Biology, Mathematics, or Social Studies and Special Education (Grades 5 – 12)

  • B.A./MPS Program in the Teaching of English as a Foreign Language: TESOL (All Grades)

Additionally, students with an undergraduate Bachelor of Science Education major may pursue an Accelerated Degree program that adds a Masters of Professional Studies in Special Education, Literacy, or Teaching of English as a Foreign Language: TESOL.

Following their declaration of intent to pursue a master's level program, students should refer to the recommended courses outlined in their degree audit and should consult their Education advisor about the best graduate-level courses to pursue while completing the bachelor's degree.
