The Curry School of Education offers Bachelor of Science in Education (B.S.Ed.) degrees in Speech Pathology and Audiology and Kinesiology. The Kinesiology and Speech Pathology programs are pre-professional in nature, allowing degree candidates to explore career options in their respective areas.
The B.S.Ed. degree in Speech Pathology and Audiology is available to students who have completed the equivalent of two years (60 credits) of undergraduate studies. Students applying for transfer from other schools must make application through the University’s Undergraduate Office of Admissions. Those already enrolled at the University of Virginia apply for admission through the Curry web site. Admission is based in part on prior academic performance and congruence of an applicant’s educational goals with those of the desired program of study. Those admitted to a B.S.Ed. program must plan carefully with their advisors, so all requirements can be completed within at two-year period. A total of 120 credits is required for graduation.
The Kinesiology program is currently transitioning from a third-year admit to a direct admit program. The program now accepts applications from high school seniors, who will begin the program during their first year at the University. Students who are first-years during the 2011-2012 academic year will be allowed to apply during either their first or second years (for entrance during the 2012-2013 or 2013-2014 academic years). Students who are second-years during the 2011-2012 academic year will be allowed to apply during their second year (for entrance during the 2012-2013 academic year).
The Curry School offers three education options for undergraduates: a B.S.Ed. in Communication Disorders or Kinesiology and a B.A./M.T. in Teacher Education.
