Bachelor of Science
Rapid technological changes have generated strong demand for Pro-Mo-Ted Education in Michigan. Graduates can expect excellent career opportunities in industry, secondary and vocational education. This program is designed for a person teaching in a career and technical education classroom who has not received a bachelor degree. The Pro-Mo-Ted program develops skills and gives the training to teach them to others which are a valuable combination in education today. If you relate well to others and enjoy working with your hands and mind, you are well suited for a worthwhile and rewarding career in Technical Education. Pro-Mo-Ted is an alternative means for gaining the Interim Occupational Certificate required to teach in a Career and Technical Education setting. The Ferris State University Pro-Mo-Ted education program provides a balanced mix of courses in three major areas: professional education, field experience and liberal arts education. About a third of the courses required for graduation will be in the major’s chosen field. Pro-Mo-Ted education students also must complete occupational work experience. Field experiences in which students work with young people in public schools is required, along with a full-time directed teaching assignment in a vocational/technical program at an area vocational center or high school.
