Our program aims to train qualified professionals who have a genuine interest, love, and patience for children, embrace the importance of child development and education, possess a comprehensive understanding of developmental characteristics, can recognize children with special needs, and are creative and respectful in their work. To facilitate experiential learning for students, our educational program consists of both theoretical and practical courses. Through our education program, we aim to cultivate child development specialists who can effectively guide children, create awareness among families and the community regarding children's needs and appropriate approaches, and contribute to the development of a child's well-being. Students are required to complete a 30-day "Summer Internship" in preschool education institutions and related organizations during the third and fourth semesters. In the "Practical Application in Preschool Education Institutions" course, offered in the third and fourth semesters, students have the opportunity to observe children, record their observations, explain the planning and programming process, teach children self-care skills, develop activity examples, and implement those examples in real settings.
