Total required hours for the program are 129. Passing scores in the PRAXIS II Social Studies content test and the Principles of Learning and Teaching Exam are necessary for graduation and West Virginia certification to teach Social Studies from grades 5 to 12.Additionally, Fairmont offers a Master of Arts in Teaching degree in Social Studies Education that provides certification in the exact manner that the undergraduate program at Fairmont State University does. That is, graduate students, at least in terms of Social Studies preparation, have to complete the exact same program." I want to find another Bachelor Course
