Our Curriculum and Instruction program at Portland State University focuses on inclusive education for young children, birth through age 8. We believe that children and teachers construct knowledge, alone and in collaboration, through interaction with the social and physical worlds. Our early childhood courses reflect an inquiry-based, constructivist approach to teaching and learning.

We support reflective and responsive early childhood educators. Our student form a deep understanding of the role of development, diversity, and culture in the lives of young children and their families. Our interdisciplinary and inclusive early childhood master’s program combines the strength and expertise of two departments and allows you to specialize in one of three critical areas or combine them.
