The Education, Society, and Human Develop- ment 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 relation- ship between education, society and culture, educational policy and leadership, measure- ment 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 stratification. In addition, students will develop a historical and contemporary aware- ness of different learning settings, and gain a strong foundation in human development, assessment and interventions in the educa- tion context. Students who are interested in teaching elementary, middle, or high schools should consult an academic advisor in the SOE 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 Development 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 pre- pared 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. Under- graduates enrolled in the Education, Society, and Human Development degree are encour- aged to complete courses inside 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 disci- pline. The B.A. in Education, Society, and Hu- man Development is not a teacher credential program. (See 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 de- signed for first-year freshmen students that meets weekly with several aspirations includ- ing community 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 experience 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 to- ward 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 commu- nity building, orientation to the campus and the Education 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 pro- gram 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 require- ments. 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 prerequi- site “Major” coursework required. Meeting the minimum eligibility requirements does not guarantee admission.

The 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 residence and unit requirements, are in the Graduate 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 recommendation 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 matriculation. Ph.D. applicants must sub- mit 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 bacca- laureate 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 School of Education Ph.D. program in School Psychol- ogy, may earn a M.A. degree in Education with specialization in School Psychology. Before the end of the first quarter, the student’s advisor develops a program plan that specifies the courses the student will take. The M.A. with specialization in Education, So- ciety, 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 Psy- chology 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 compe- tence 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 student is recommended to the Graduate Division for the M.A. degree.

Plan II (Comprehensive Examination) Students must complete a minimum of 36 quarter units in upper-division and graduate courses in Education and related fields as de- fined in existing 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 specialization 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 ex- amination. 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 and Oral Qualifying Exam 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 School of Education, and one faculty mem- ber 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 determines that the pre-pro- posal 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 student, but the questioning may go beyond the pre-propos- al.Students pass the oral qualifying exam- ination when the committee is satisfied that

• 1) the pre-proposal, as well as the student’s

grasp of the theoretical and empirical issues at its core, leads in a productive direction 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 exam- ination. 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 disser- tation and schedule an oral defense with the approval of the committee chair. The dissertation must be approved by the dis- sertation committee and submitted to the Graduate Division before the candidate is recommended 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
