PREPARATION FOR
SECONDARY SCHOOL TEACHING
Students interested
in teaching Chinese in New York
schools may count 12 credits of courses from the secondary education
sequence as a minor. This minor may count towards the course requirements
for New York State
certification or New York City
licensing, but will not by itself be sufficient for either of these.
Students interested in a teaching career should consult with the Division
of Programs in Education (Office of Education Services, Room 1000W).
For general college
requirements please consult the Hunter College Undergraduate Catalog.
