Prospective TeachersNew History/Social Science Single Subject Advisor Pre-Semester Single Subject Advising for Spring 2008
HIS 306 Course Information History/Social Science Single Subject Matter Credential Preparation Program Completion of an approved subject matter preparation program or passing comprehensive examinations in the subject matter field fulfills one part of the requirements leading to the Single Subject Teaching Credential in Social Science. While the subject matter program in history/social science is not an academic major, credits earned toward the student's major and minor can be used to meet many of the requirements of the subject matter program. Students interested in pursuing a teaching career at the secondary level should meet regularly with a designated social science subject matter preparation program advisor.

CSUDH 2042 Preliminary History-Social Science Subject Matter Program
Commission Approved June 2007
This program replaces the old History/Social Science Single Subject Matter Program. Only students who began coursework in the old program prior to July 1, 2005 are permitted to continue in that program, and they must complete the program by December 31, 2008. All other CSUDH students who intend to establish their Subject Matter Competence in Social Science through the completion of coursework must follow the new program.
The new program is in response to changing requirements by the State of California. It requires only 5 units more than did the pre-June 2007 program (75 versus 70). The changes are otherwise significant. The new program features a big increase in History units and the elimination of units in Anthropology, Psychology, and Sociology. In many cases it allows fewer options for satisfying various requirements. No lower-division course may be substituted for any upper-division course. This prohibition is absolute.
