Program: The Global Educators Cohort Program is a specialized teacher preparation program focused on global and international perspectives. Teacher candidates participate in this unique program from freshman year through fifth-year internship by enrolling in coursework designed to support the development of a global perspective, participating in extra-curricular programming developed to enhance the learning experience, engaging in practice-teaching in multicultural and/or international contexts, and being mentored by faculty with expertise in international and global education. Graduates of this program will be specially qualified to bring the world to their students, to teach abroad, or to teach in magnet schools or other programs that emphasize international, global, or multi-cultural perspectives.
Candidates: Candidates for this special program are incoming freshmen with an interest in multicultural or international education at the elementary or secondary level. Students who are admitted will participate in this program designed for students’ first two years at MSU before matriculating into the teacher education program at the junior year.
