About this programme

Mount Royal University's Bachelor of Education — Elementary (B.Ed) is unique because it provides students with direct entry into the four-year degree program. You don't need a degree or prior post-secondary coursework to be considered for the program. Starting in your first year of study, you will gain extensive hands-on experience in elementary school classrooms — an experience that continues during each year of the program. The Bachelor of Education—Elementary is taught by a committed group of full-time and part-time faculty. All full-time faculty members hold doctoral degrees and have K–12 teaching experience. We value reflective practice for developing ethical responsibility to learners, colleagues, and community.

Innovation and Engagement Recognizing that lifelong learning emerges from genuine student engagement, we value the creation of dynamic learning environments that address real world questions and promote inquiry. We value innovative teaching practices that push beyond the ordinary, including digital, arts-based, and experiential learning.

We value connections with the community that foster leadership opportunities for our teacher candidates.
