On August 14, 1876, the Texas Legislature established the \u201cAgricultural and Mechanical College of Texas for Colored Youths\u201d and placed responsibility for its management with the Board of Directors of the Agricultural and Mechanical College at Bryan. The A&amp;M College of Texas for Colored Youths opened at Prairie View, Texas on March 11, 1878.<\/p>\n<p>The University\u2019s original curriculum was designated by the Texas Legislature in 1879 to be that of a \u201cNormal School\u201d for the preparation and training of teachers. The Department of Elementary Education Programs offered the Bachelor of Science degree with a major in Elementary Education and a minor or academic specialization in a subject area. This curriculum was expanded to include the arts and sciences, home economics, agriculture, mechanical arts and nursing after the University was established as a branch of the Agricultural Experiment Station (Hatch Act, 1887) and as a Land Grant College (Morrill Act, 1890). Thus began the tradition of agricultural research and community service, which continues today. The department, historically, offered programs leading to the provisional certification at the undergraduate levels in Elementary Education and an endorsement in Kindergarten Education (A Long Range Development Plan, 1981-1987).<\/p>\n<p>The four-year senior college program began in 1919, and in 1937, a division of graduate studies was added, offering master\u2019s degrees in agricultural economics, rural education, agricultural education, school administration and supervision, and rural sociology.<\/p>\n<p>Today, we offer a Bachelor of Science in Teacher Education with several concentrations, a Master of Education and a Master of Science in Education in Curriculum and Instruction, Curriculum and Instruction \u2013 Reading, and Special Education.<\/p>\n<\/div><div
