Drug and Alcohol Requirement for a Degree in Education in Montana
In keeping with a state law of Montana passed in 1971, any student receiving a degree in education since December 31, 1972, must have successfully completed a course in health education to include drug and alcohol abuse education.
Chapter No. 396, Section 3, Montana Session Laws 1971
“All units of the Montana university system and all private colleges and universities in Montana that offer any degree in education shall require that any person who receives any degree in education from that unit, private college, or private university after December 31, 1972, must have successfully completed a course in health education to include drug and alcohol education and abuse prior to being awarded his degree.”
The requirement may be met at Montana State University Billings by completing HHP 411, Drug and Alcohol Education. HHP 411 may be included on an individual’s plan of study with the approval of the advisor. Any student who wishes to transfer a course from another Montana institution should consult with the Director of Graduate Studies concerning acceptable courses. Any student who wishes to use a transfer course from outside Montana must supply a transcript, a course description and a course syllabus for the course as an appendix to the Plan of Study. The Drug and Alcohol requirement applies to the Master of Education and the Master of Science in Special Education.
