- The Master of Arts Program in Child Study and Education at the Eric Jackman Institute of Child Study is a degree program with elementary teacher certification. Housed in historic McCarthy House, the program admits only 45 students each year who want to pursue a career in teaching elementary school children with graduate training that may lead to a doctoral degree.
- The program is truly unique in the world. In addition to combining teacher education and graduate studies, the program offers intensive practicum placements in our on-site Laboratory School as well as in public school settings; the student can also choose to concentrate in the areas of special education and/or early childhood. The distinguished faculty make significant contributions to research in the areas of child development and education and encourage students to participate in their active research projects.
