Liberal Studies Teacher Preparation is the 'Elementary Education' major at SJSU. Through
a rich, rigorous, and cross-disciplinary program of study, we prepare teachers who
create relevant and transformative educational experiences for TK-8 students.
We have four undergraduate pathways: 1) Traditional (LSTP); 2) Integrated (ITEP);
3) Spanish Bilingual Integrated (ITEPB); 4) SAGE Program. All Liberal Studies pathways
are approved by the California Commission on Teacher Credentialing (CCTC) for waiver
of the elementary subject matter examination (CSET for Multiple Subjects).
We welcome you to explore the various programs in Liberal Studies! You can find more
information on the pathways, advising, and admission by clicking on each of the pathways
