I'm currently attending UC Merced. Will completing the NSED Minor help me get accepted into the credential program?

Answer: 

The NSED minor and the TPP are partner programs. There are four courses in the NSED minor that allow you to finish sooner with less expense. You must have earned a grade of B- or higher for these courses to be applied to the Teacher Preparation Program:

  • NSED 100 - Project-Based Instruction: Assessment and Management for Beginning Teachers 
  • NSED 120 - Classroom Interactions in Science and Mathematics: A focus on Equity in Urban and Rural Schools
  • NSED 130 – Technology in Education
  • NSED 150 - Research Methods in Education
