Students interested in majoring in Elementary Education need to identify the four-year college/university to which they plan to transfer. Each individual institution may require different curriculum electives for graduation. Listed above are the courses required by the Colorado State University-Pueblo Teacher Education Program. Students successfully completing degree requirements may be eligible for admission to CSU-P as juniors.

There are no current statewide articulation agreements in secondary or K-12 education, but you can still pursue these options at PCC.
