Concentration Area In addition to the general education and professional education requirements, each elementary education major must choose, with his or her advisor, an area of concentration with a minimum of sixteen credits. A second option would be to choose two concentrations with a minimum of eight credits in each. Acceptable areas of concentration include biology, chemistry, English, history, mathematics, music, physical education, middle school, early childhood, and special needs. Other areas may be acceptable with the approval of the chair of the Education Department. The “No Child Left Behind” (NCLB) legislation may require program modifications.
