Education Education In lieu of the major and minor, a candidate may have a composite teaching major which consists of a minimum of sixty-two hours of subjects in closely related fields. The composite major does not require an accompanying minor. The following are composite majors with their requirements: BIOLOGY COMPOSITE TEACHING MAJOR The biology composite teaching major must complete a minimum of 62 quarter hours in the life sciences in addition to the requirements in the physical sciences, state certification and graduation requirements. The required courses have been selected to give the student a broad background in the biological disciplines as well as minimal training in the physical sciences. The courses required for the Biology Composite Teaching Major are: Botany 1, 2, 161 or 162; Microbiology 1; Zoology 4, 7, 20, 130, 181; Botany 145 or Zoology 140 or 145; Botany 120 or Zoology 120 or 123; 2 credits of seminar selected from the Botany, Microbiology or Zoology Departments; Chemistry 11, 12, 13 or 24, 25, 26; Geology 21 or 22; Physics 5; and Mathematics 14, or 18. Substitutions of equivalent credits or deviations from the above requirements must be approved by the advisor. Recommended electives may be selected from the following: Botany 50, 100, 110, 185; Zoology 164, 168, 172, 180. It is strongly recommended that the students take more advanced courses in mathematics, physics, and chemistry, especially if they plan on graduate studies beyond the Bachelor of Science Degree. BUSINESS EDUCATION COMPOSITE TEACHING MAJOR A student selecting this must have a major emphasis of at least 24 hours from the courses required in the major and emphasis in two complementary minors of at least 18 hours each, from the courses required in the minors. The following fields are acceptable for the composite teaching major in business education: Accounting, Economics, and Office Administration. MUSIC EDUCATION COMPOSITE TEACHING MAJOR The Music Education Composite Teaching Major is recommended for prospective secondary school music educators and consists of a minimum of 80 quarter hours in four areas as listed below. Requirements may be modified to meet individual needs. Music Theory: Music 10, 11, 12, 81, 82, 83, 179, 180; and either Music 182, 183 or Music 185, 186. 29 hours Music History and Literature: Music 107, 108, 109 or Music 110, 111, 112. 9 hours Music Education : Music 24, 25-1, 25-11, 26-1, 26-11, 27-1, 27-11, 28, 120, 121, 122, 130, 135, 136. 36 hours Applied Music: 10 hours of major ensemble, 6 hours private lessons 16 hours Total 80 hours MATHEMATICS AND PHYSICAL SCIENCE COMPOSITE TEACHING MAJOR The Mathematics and Physical Science Composite Teaching Major requires courses in three of the four departments: Chemistry, Geology-Geography, Mathematics, and Physics. At least 27 hours of specific courses must be taken in one department and at least 20 hours in each of the other two departments selected.
