Clemson University graduate Amanda Bluhm, one of the first Clemson students to seek a Master’s degree through the College of Education’s innovative Teacher Residency program, and teacher Jennifer Eaton work together in Eaton’s 6th grade classroom at Mt. Lebanon Elementary School in Anderson County, S.C., May 24, 2019. Teacher residencies are a research-based method to increase teacher retention and preparedness as well as student achievement. At the heart of Clemson’s residency program is the college’s combined degree option for undergraduate education students. This degree option replaces student teaching in a student’s final undergraduate semester with graduate education classes, and the following year is comprised of a year-round teacher residency. The residency program will see its graduates emerge after five years with both a bachelor’s and master’s degree in education as well as an extended, year-long student teaching experience.
