This is a four-year degree program; however, students who enter with a completed Associate of Arts degree are able to complete this degree within 2-2.5 years. Students are able to complete their degree full-time, or part-time by completing three courses per semester, or two courses per semester. Courses leading toward the BECE degree are offered in a variety of formats (e.g., fully online, hybrid, face-to-face) and the tuition costs at FAU are among the lowest in the nation (view full details about tuition rates), making the degree accessible to many.
