Double Degree -Bachelor of Education - Secondary Education & Bachelor of Arts - Social Studies

Program Description The Secondary Teacher Education Program at Bishop’s University is a two step program leading to two degrees, a Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) or a Bachelor of Sciences (B.Sc.) with a Double Major (Education and a teaching discipline) and a Bachelor of Education (B.Ed.) This combination of degrees is required in order to be eligible for a Quebec teaching permit or “brevet d’enseignement.” This degree only certifies you to teach in the province of Quebec. If you are planning to teach in another province, it is your responsibility to contact the Ministry of Education in that province to see what additional courses are required to certify you to teach in their province. The Division offer an entry level program for a limited number of students, allowing them to register as Divisional Majors (rather than into a specific program) for a maximum of two semesters. After two semesters of full-time study are completed, students must enrol into a specific program.
