The Education, Society, and Human Devel- opment Major builds a theoretical foundation, presents applied understandings in the study of education, and explores the varied contexts of learning over the life course.

Program faculty bring multiple disciplinary perspectives to their research and courses, including cognitive sciences, developmental psychology, understanding of the exceptional child, applied behavior analysis, the relationship between education, society and culture, educa- tional policy and leadership, measurement and assessment, and issues in higher education.

Students will benefit from completing the major because they will be exposed to critical theories that investigate how education has been used to create, maintain, and reinforce social stratifica- tion. In addition, students will develop a historical and contemporary awareness of different learning settings, and gain a strong foundation in human development, assessment and interven- tions in the education context. Students who are interested in teaching elementary, middle, or high schools should consult an academic advisor in the GSOE Undergraduate Programs Office about combining an appropriate major and minor or completing a double major in order to develop appropriate expertise in the subject they plan to teach.

Education, Society, and Human Develop- ment majors are also prepared for other types of instructional, administrative or advocacy positions in programs or organizations such as those focused on early childcare, out-of-school learning, or adult learning. Additionally, students who complete the major are prepared to enter education-related career fields in the private, non-profit, and public sectors including working with special populations, in legal fields, medical environments, and the arts. Students interested in graduate study will be well prepared to pursue advanced degree programs in education or related fields. Undergraduates enrolled in the Education, Society, and Human Development degree are encouraged to complete courses in- side and outside of the major to enhance career preparation and pursue personal interests. With advanced planning, students in the major can complete a minor or a second major in another discipline. The B.A. in Education, Society, and Human Development is not a teacher credential program. (See Graduate School of Education section on Teaching Credentials and Masters programs.)

The EDUC 093A, EDUC 093B, and EDUC 093C courses are a year-long seminar series designed for first-year freshmen students that meets weekly with several aspirations including com- munity building, orientation to the campus and the major, and academic support. The long-term goal of this seminar series is to not only set the foundation for the major but to build an experi- ence that evolves over the course of students’ experience at UCR.

The seminars are for first-time freshmen in the Education, Society, and Human Development major; freshmen are given enrollment priority. Each seminar carries 2 units of academic credit, although units are not applied toward major requirements. The seminar series is recommended, but not required for completion of the degree. The seminars are graded on an “S/NC” basis.

The EDUC 094 course is a 2-unit junior seminar (designed for new, incoming transfer students) that meets weekly for the purpose of community building, orientation to the campus and the Ed- ucation major, and academic support. The long term goal of this seminar is to not only set the foundation for the major, but to build a learning community experience that follows students over the course of their program at UCR. New, incoming transfer students are given enrollment priority into this course which carries 2 units of academic credit. These units are not applied toward major requirements. The seminar is recommended, but not required for completion of the degree. The seminars are graded on an “S/NC” basis.

Admission is selective and based on all trans- ferable coursework with a minimum GPA of 2.4 (2.8 for non-residents). There is no prerequisite “Major” coursework required. Meeting the mini- mum eligibility requirements does not guarantee admission.

The Education minor offers to any undergrad- uate student an introduction to issues and practices of education and research in public schools. Students from any major are invited to pursue a minor in Education.

Students in the Education minor may select from a variety of courses that may focus on a partic- ular interest or may sample across aspects of the curriculum. Specific areas of interest that are reflected in the course offerings include: Special education, psychology, higher education, policy and leadership, culture and language, issues of classism, racism, sexism, heterosexism, diver- sity and equity, social justice, curriculum and teaching strategies, qualitative and quantitative methods, and educational research. The Education minor does not lead to a teaching credential; however, some of the courses will satisfy UCR Teacher Education Program require- ments. Students who are interested in pursuing a teaching credential should contact the Teacher Education Program at (951) 827-5225.

Program Requirements The Education minor consists of the satisfactory completion of 24 units in courses identified for the Education Minor Program. At least 16 units must be completed in upper division courses.

Student petitions require the approval of the pro- gram advisor in the Education minor. Students may not petition to take more than 8 units of courses outside of the identified courses for the Education minor. College approval from both the Graduate School of Education and the major college is required. Please see education.ucr.edu for the minor petition process. Minor in Education candidates must maintain a minimum cumulative GPA of 2.0

The Graduate School of Education offers three degree programs–Doctor of Philosophy, Master of Arts and Master of Education–as well as a variety of teacher credential programs. Each of these programs is described in detail below.

General university requirements, such as resi- dence and unit requirements, are in the Gradu- ate Studies section of this catalog. Policies and Procedures for Graduate Degree Programs may be obtained from the Graduate Programs Office.

Admission Admission is based upon GPA and letters of rec- ommendation from writers knowledgeable about the candidate’s ability to succeed in graduate study. In addition, M.A. and Ph.D. applicants must submit scores from the GRE General Test (verbal, quantitative, analytical), no more than five years old from the date of their matricu- lation. Ph.D. applicants must submit a writing sample. The GRE is not required of applicants seeking admission to credential programs or to the M.Ed. program. The Ph.D. program admits students in the Fall quarter only. Admission for the doctoral degree is based on strong academic preparation at the baccalaure- ate level. A master’s degree in education such as that offered at UCR or a master’s degree in an ancillary field is desirable but not required. Doctoral students begin their programs in the fall quarter.

Candidates enrolled in this program normally have completed an undergraduate major or its equivalent in a subject field other than education.

Specialization Areas of specialization include Education, Society, and Culture; Educational Psychology; Neuroscience and Education; Research, Evaluation, Measurement and Statistics; Special Education and Autism; and School Psychology (for students working toward the Ph.D.). Only students matriculating in a Graduate School of Education Ph.D. program in School Psycholo- gy, may earn a M.A. degree in Education with specialization in School Psychology. Before the end of the first quarter, the student’s advisor de- velops a program plan that specifies the courses the student will take.

The M.A. with specialization in Education, Society, and Culture; Educational Psychology; or Special Education and Autism gives students the option of completing Plan I (Thesis) or Plan II (Comprehensive Examination).

The M.A. with specialization in School Psychol- ogy or Neuroscience and Education only allows students to complete the Plan I (Thesis option). The M.A. specialization in Research, Evaluation, Measurement and Statistics only allows students to take Plan II (comprehensive examination option).

Information about each area of specialization is available at education.ucr.edu.

Plan I (Thesis) Students complete a minimum of 36 upper-di- vision and graduate units. At least 24 of these units are in graduate courses.

A maximum of 12 units may be in graduate research for the thesis.

At the beginning of the second, and generally not later than the third quarter of full-time work, candidates submit a plan for the thesis to their committee. Candidates also list courses to be taken for developing competence in their area of specialization. The plan is reviewed and approved by a committee of three faculty members. The candidate submits the final thesis to the committee for approval. Upon successful completion and approval of the thesis, the stu- dent is recommended to the Graduate Division for the M.A. degree.

Plan II (Comprehensive Examination) Students must complete a minimum of 36 quar- ter units in upper-division and graduate courses in Education and related fields as defined in ex- isting programs. At least 18 of the 36 units must be in graduate courses, and none in graduate research for the thesis.

A faculty member from the program area spe- cialization is appointed by the graduate advisor to guide the candidate. A program plan must be filed with the graduate advisor by the end of the first quarter of residency. Upon or near completion of course work, the student applies to take a comprehensive written examination. Upon successful completion of the examination, the candidate is recommended to the Graduate Division for the M.A. degree.

Coursework Candidates entering the M.A. program take a series of courses based on their area of specialization.

Written Qualifying Examination Near completion of the second year of study or after 60 units of graduate level course work, students take the written qualifying examination. The student’s faculty advisor, in consultation with faculty associated with the student’s area of specialization, coordinates the construction of the written examination. Students must

• 1. Review critical literature in an assigned

field

• 2. Demonstrate competence in research

methodologies, and

• 3. Demonstrate competence over content

in fields of specialization.

The faculty associated with the student’s area of specialization evaluate the written qualifying examination to determine the outcome. In the event students do not pass one or more sections, they will have one more opportunity to pass to continue in the program.

Pre-proposal Following the successful completion of the written examination and before the oral qualifying examination, the Graduate Dean approves an oral qualifying committee nominated by the program. The committee consists of the student’s faculty advisor, three additional faculty members from the Graduate School of Education, and one faculty member from outside the school. In preparation for the oral qualifying examination, students develop a pre-proposal, setting forth the direction of their dissertation. Once the faculty advisor de- termines that the pre-proposal is ready for the oral examination, it is distributed to the oral qualifying committee. The committee uses the pre-proposal as a focus for examining the stu- dent, but the questioning may go beyond the pre-proposal.Students pass the oral qualifying examination when the committee is satisfied that 1) the pre-proposal, as well as the stu- dent’s grasp of the theoretical and empirical issues at its core, leads in a productive direc- tion toward a competent dissertation, and 2) the student has demonstrated competence in areas covered by the written examination that are also addressed in the oral examination.

Proposal Prior to commencing the dissertation research, students must have a dissertation pro roposal approved by the dissertation commmittee.

Teaching Requirement EDUC 302 is taken for a minimum of one quarter. Units are determined by supervising course instructor.

Foreign Language Requirement None

Dissertation Following the approval of the dissertation proposal, students will complete a disserta- tion and schedule an oral defense with the approval of the committee chair. The disser- tation must be approved by the dissertation committee and submitted to the Graduate Division before the candidate is recommend- ed for the degree.

Professional Development Requirement All students must enroll in EDUC 259.

Normative Time to Degree 15 quarters from admission to the Ph.D. program
