The secondary education program trains students to teach language and literature in middle, junior and senior high schools. Its special attribute is a wide variety of courses in professional education, reading, writing, and supervised practice teaching. Stimulating and varied practical field experience are integral parts of the program.

The program's aims are to develop verbal expression, provide a solid background in subject matter, and develop skills necessary for students to become effective teachers on the secondary level. Working in close collaboration with the School of Education, the English Department serves prospective teachers by offering them a balanced program of practical and theoretical skills.
