Graduates of York University who study secondary education are certified to teach in 6th through 12th grade classrooms.
Students can increase their skills and workplace marketability by adding up to two areas of endorsement with this major:

Graduates of the secondary education program are in especially high demand in the special education arena. There is a great need for certified teachers for students with mild disabilities in K-12 classrooms across Nebraska and the United States.
Prior to student teaching, secondary education majors complete more than 100 hours of field experience, observing local high school classrooms. York University works closely with area schools to offer our students the best real-world experience possible.
