Department of Education
An Education Degree at Linfield
The Linfield Education Department is composed of passionate educators—both of children and college students. We revise our program on an ongoing basis to meet state and national standards, current “best practices” from research, and—most importantly—the needs of our Linfield students and local schools. We firmly believe in hands-on learning, and we get you out in the schools during your first year here.
If you join our team, you will be able to leave Linfield in four years with a college degree and a license to teach:
- Early Childhood and Elementary or
- Upper Elementary and Middle School or
- Middle School and High School
