Boston University’s English Education Undergraduate Program is designed to prepare teachers of English (grades 5-8 and 8-12) and those planning careers in related fields such as publishing, instructional materials and curriculum development, and educational research. Students develop a wide range of classroom strategies specific to the age of the learners, the educational environment, and the subject matter. 

In addition to thirteen English literature and writing courses, and liberal arts courses in social sciences, mathematics and natural sciences, students complete nine courses in the School of Education including a freshman field based course, curriculum, methodology and student teaching.

Students who complete Boston University’s state-approved teacher program are eligible for licensure in Massachusetts and may be eligible for licensure in 44 other states through a reciprocal agreement.
