2023 Home Economics Teacher Education Popularity

POPULARITY

Home economics teacher education is the 339th most popular degree in America, with 246 students receiving their bachelors degree last year. It just beat out #340 Astrophysics, and narrowly lost to #338 Technology Teacher Education.

The degree is offered at a total of 55 colleges across the nation, and is the 257th most widely offered degree. It is only offered at 1% of the Top 100 Best Colleges in America.

It is also worth noting that barely above 71.4% of colleges offering home economics teacher education are public making it a quite accessible field.

The southeast produces the most home economics teacher education graduates, largely led by University of Central Arkansas, while it’s the Wisconsin Intercollegiate Ath Conference that leads conference totals. As far as states, Wisconsin ranks highest, with particular help from University of Wisconsin-Stout and University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point.

All that being said, no individual school produces more home economics teacher education graduates than University of Minnesota-Twin Cities, which graduated 35 students last year alone. Although size is critical, another important factor to consider is the program’s density (the percent of all students that study home economics teacher education). More students studied home economics teacher education as a percentage of total students at Winthrop University than any other college.
