BS, Childhood Education and Childhood Special Education, Grades 1-6, Initial Certification

Studying away brings your NYU Steinhardt education into a global context, letting you experience your field from a new perspective and make the world part of your classroom. 

Your program’s Global Pathways show when and where study away fits best in your degree, with recommended courses to keep you on track. You may also explore other NYU global sites, as long as your plans align with your degree requirements.
