Bachelor of Arts - Liberal Studies - Integrated

The Bachelor of Arts in Liberal Studies, provides the foundation for students interested in becoming multiple-subject credentialed K-8 educators. This degree offers three concentrations: General, Integrated, and Spanish Studies. The Bachelor of Arts in Liberal Studies Integrated Concentration provides students the opportunity to complete a Bachelor's degree and a California Commission on Teacher Credentialing (CTC) accredited multiple-subject teaching credential as a part of a seamless, singular degree option. The General and Spanish Studies Concentrations are considered pre-credential degrees and allow students the flexibility to earn a stand-alone Bachelor of Arts in Liberal Studies that is not directly coupled with a Commission on Teacher Credentialing multiple-subject credential while allowing students the choice of a concentrated area of study. With these pre-credential concentrations, students earn a Bachelor of Arts in Liberal Studies and can apply for a Commission on Teacher Credentialing multiple-subject credential program at a later date if desired. 

​​​The Integrated Concentration leads to both a Bachelor of Arts degree in Liberal Studies and Multiple Subject Credential. It is designed for students who plan to become elementary, K-8, school teachers and who want to save time and money by working on the credential along with their B.A. degree. (Credential).
