We offer programs in Interdisciplinary Early Childhood Education, Elementary Education; four secondary 9-12 program (English, Biology, Mathematics, and Social Studies); three K-12 areas (Art, Music, Health, and Physical Education); and an Alternative Initial Certification through the Master of Arts in Special Education (Learning Behavior Disorders K-12) program. We are a small program under new leadership. An Interim Chair has been identified as the past chair has moved to become the Interim Associate Provost. Kentucky State University is the only Historically Black College in the Commonwealth of Kentucky and produces over 33% or the minority teachers and probably a numerical equal amount of non-minority teachers for the State.
