Undergraduate

The Werklund School of Education offers five Bachelor of Education (BEd) undergraduate degree pathways:

  • Four-Year BEd

    • Fall-start on-campus pathway

    • Summer-start Community-Based blended delivery pathway

  • Five-Year Concurrent BEd

  • Fall-start on-campus pathway

  • Two-Year After-Degree BEd for holders of approved degrees

    • Fall-start on-campus pathway

    • Summer-start Community-Based blended delivery pathway

All students in the Five-Year Concurrent BEd and Two-Year After-Degree BEd pathways must choose a route - Elementary route (kindergarten through grade 6) or Secondary route (grades 7 through 12) and a Teachable Subject Area. Students in the Four-Year Community-Based BEd pathway will be in a K-12 route and apply only for a Teachable Subject Area, not a route. Students in the Four-Year BEd (On-Campus) pathway may declare a Route, depending upon desired Teachable Subject Area. Some Areas offer a K-12 focus. Students should refer to ‘Degrees Offered’, below.

Additionally, students may choose to add an Honours designation to their degree.

The University of Calgary, located in the heart of Southern Alberta, both acknowledges and pays tribute to the traditional territories of the peoples of Treaty 7, which include the Blackfoot Confederacy (comprised of the Siksika, the Piikani, and the Kainai First Nations), the Tsuut’ina First Nation, and the Stoney Nakoda (including Chiniki, Bearspaw, and Goodstoney First Nations). The City of Calgary is also home to the Métis Nation of Alberta (districts 5 and 6).

The University of Calgary is situated on land Northwest of where the Bow River meets the Elbow River, a site traditionally known as Moh’kins’tsis to the Blackfoot, Wîchîspa to the Stoney Nakoda, and Guts’ists’i to the Tsuut’ina. On this land and in this place we strive to learn together, walk together, and grow together “in a good way.”
