Description
The Walden University BS in Child Development degree program addresses the needs of child development professionals by providing the tools and strategies needed to improve practice with children across a variety of age levels. Students can choose from eight concentrations: Infant/Toddler, Preschool, Dual Infant/Toddler and Preschool, Child and Adolescent Studies, or Psychology. All eight concentrations in the program deliver an in-depth focus on child development, child-centered learning, developmentally appropriate environments, and effective practices for working with children and families. Students will gain insights in the field of child development through courses that bridge the gap between theoretical and practical knowledge, led by national experts, researchers, and experts in the field.
