Which specialization you choose depends in part on whether you wish to do a special education, bilingual, or regular credential and whether or not you wish to apply for the fast-track Integrated Program (4.5 years total), complete the traditional program (4 years of LIB S plus 1 year of credential), or add a subject matter authorization to a regular credential in order to teach in middle school. You should use the Specialization Flow Chart to determine which specialization best matches your needs.
* Note that students usually follow the most recent versions of the specialization because they reflect changes in course offerings. Students who have a major catalog year of 2005-06 or earlier must follow the chart for Human Development for the Year 2005-2006 and earlier (Child and Family Development 375A is substituted for CFD 371). The 2006-2007 and later Human Development Specialization requires more units.
The subject matter authorizations needed in order to teach middle school require 32 units in one subject area. Currently there is a shortage of single subject teachers certified to teach math and science. Liberal Studies graduates who have a multiple subject credential and a subject matter authorization in math or science (and sometimes English) are being hired, especially by K-8 and K-12 districts.
