ProgrammesDegree Programmes Available in the Department of Science Education
There are currently five distinct Bachelor degree programmes available in the Department of Science Education. These are: In Science Education - B.Sc. (Ed) Mathematics;
- B.Sc. (Ed) Physics,
- B.Sc. (Ed) Chemistry;
- B.Sc. (Ed) Biology, and
In Educational Technology - B.Ed. (Educational Technology).
Students can also minor in Introductory Technology Each degree programme has three distinct academic curriculum components, namely: First Major (Education); 2nd Major (Selected teaching subject) offered from 100 Level through 400 Level and a Minor teaching subject offered as from the 100 level and normally terminating at the end of the 300 Level. For instance, B. Sc (Ed) Mathematics implies a degree in Education and Mathematics as a major and either Statistics, Chemistry or Physics as the minor teaching subjects. In the case of the B.Ed. (Educational Technology), Education and Educational Technology are the two major subjects, while any of Introductory Technology, Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, Biology, etc., may be the minor teaching subject. In running the degree programmes effectively, the Department of Science Education depends on appropriate co-operating departments drawn from the Faculty of Science for handling of the teaching subjects either major or minor. The Department teaches the entire Faculty core courses related to Curriculum, Instruction and Educational Technology. Also, the Department of Science Education is responsible for the teaching of all Educational Technology and Introductory Technology courses. In addition, the Department offers graduate degree programmes, Masters (M.Ed.) in: - Curriculum Development
- Educational Technology
- Mathematics Education
- Science Education
Also, the Department runs PhD Degree in the programmes.
